To sum up this section When a fault occurs check the obvious first before trying to delve deeper. Check cables, if the item with a fault is something like a printer, scanner or monitor remember it relies on external power so make sure you check the power supply to the item in question. Also windows comes with fairly extensive help files. If you cant find the cause of a problem try clicking on the start button and choosing help. Type in the problem and see if there are entries on the subject. Sometimes the help files might ask to connect to the internet in order to search the Microsoft database on problem solving. By connecting to the internet it can search a much bigger database on problem solving and can sometimes give much better answers.
