12.5.3 Optional Lab: Troubleshooting Operating System
Problems in Windows 7

Introduction


Print and complete this lab.

In this lab, the instructor will introduce various operating system problems. The student will
diagnose the causes and solve the problems.

Recommended Equipment


The following equipment is required for this exercise:
• Computer running Windows 7

Scenario


You must solve operating system problems for a customer. Make sure you document and solve
the problems, and then document the solutions.

There are several errors. Solve one problem at a time until you can successfully boot the
computer, the desktop contains the appropriate open programs, and the display is set to the
native resolution or the resolution given to you by your instructor.

Step 1

Start the computer.

Does the computer boot to the desktop?



If the computer started Windows 7, log on to the computer with the Administrator
account.

If the computer did not start Windows 7, troubleshoot the operating system until the
computer successfully boots. Because all hardware is correctly connected, you do not
need to troubleshoot hardware in this lab.

If the operating system is missing the required files to boot the computer, you can replace
these files by booting the computer with the Windows 7 installation media. Use the
Startup Repair option to replace any missing files.

Does the Calculator start automatically?



If the Calculator does not start automatically, configure Windows to start the Calculator
every time Windows starts.

Is the resolution of the screen the native resolution or the resolution chosen by your
instructor?

If the screen resolution is not native or the resolution chosen by your instructor, configure
Windows to display the desktop at the native resolution of the monitor or the resolution
chosen by your instructor.

If the computer successfully started, the desktop contains the appropriate open
programs, and the display is set to the native resolution you have successfully solved all
operating system problems. Hand the lab into your instructor.

If you could not successfully start the computer, the desktop does not contain the
appropriate open programs, and the display is not set to the native resolution, continue
troubleshooting the problems.
