Windows 98 includes several Troubleshooter Wizards to help you
troubleshoot device conflicts on your system. Using one of these
Troubleshooters is an easy way for non-technical users to find and fix
hardware problems. You're led step by step through a series of
questions designed to track down the solution to your specific problem.
All you have to do is answer the interactive questions in the
Troubleshooter, and you'll be led to the probable solution to your
problem.
The following Troubleshooters come with Windows 98:
Dial-Up Networking
Direct Cable Connection
DirectX
Display
DriveSpace
Hardware Conflict
Memory
Modem
MS-DOS Programs
Networking
PC Card
Print
Sound
Startup and Shutdown
The Microsoft Network
To track down a particular problem with a Troubleshooter:
1.Click the Start button and select Help.
2.When the Help window appears, click the Contents tab click
Troubleshooting, and then click Windows 98 Troubleshooters.
3.Select the Troubleshooter for your specific problem in the left
pane. The Troubleshooter itself will be displayed in the right
pane.
4.Follow the interactive directions to troubleshoot your
particular hardware problems.
Fixing Big Problems with System Troubleshooter
If your problems are so big that the standard Windows Troubleshooters
can't find solve them, you need to turn to a more powerful tool. Included
with Windows 98 is just such a tool: System Troubleshooter.
System Troubleshooter is a tool that uses the same steps used by
Microsoft Technical Support staff when they're trying to diagnose
system configuration problems. You work through a series of steps
that, one-by-one, disable various system components until you track
down the one that's causing your specific problem. Use System
Troubleshooter when you have major problems with your system,
particularly problems that appear after you've installed a new piece of
hardware.
Caution
Because System Troubleshooter modifies key system files, it should be
used only by technically savvy users.
To use System Troubleshooter:
1.Launch System Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button
and selecting Run. When the Run dialog box appears, type
tshoot in the Open box, and then click OK.
2.Before you begin diagnosing problems, create a backup of all
your system files by selecting the General tab and clicking the
Create Backup button.
