Computers can sometimes stop working without warning. In these cases, the computer may or may not display error messages to help you determine what happened. These failures can be caused by:
- Memory conflicts between two or more drivers.
- Wrong network driver versions.
- Incorrect operating system setup information.
Troubleshooting Computer Failures
If you experience computer failures, try to resolve them using the tips below:
- See what other boards may be in the machine, such as a video board or a memory-resident interface card. Find out the memory addresses and interrupts that these boards are using and resolve any conflicts.
- If you have a network card installed, make sure that it is listed in the Control Panel.
