My PC card is not working

Make sure the PC card is compatible with Windows 98.

Use the Sony Notebook Setup utility to disable devices you are not
currently using.

The sound of my computer’s fan is too loud

Use the PowerPanel utility to change the Thermal Control Strategy
setting to Quiet. This setting disables the fan. See the PowerPanel Help
for more information.

I cannot print

The default setting for the printer port mode is correct for most printers.
If you cannot print, try changing the printer port mode. In Sony
Notebook Setup, select the Printer/FDD tab. If the printer port mode is
set to ECP, change it to bi-directional. If the printer port mode is set to
bi-directional, change it to ECP. See “Displaying the Sony Notebook
Setup Screen” on page 63
for details on using Sony Notebook Setup.
