Launch Keys
Located at the top of the keyboard are five buttons. These buttons are called launch keys. They are designated as P1, P2, P3, mail button and Web browser button. By default, buttons P1and P2 are users programmable. The mail button is used to launch the e-mail application. The LED of the mail button will flash when the user has received an incoming e-mail. The P3, by default is used to launch a multimedia application that came bundled with your system. The Web browser button, by default, is used to launch your Internet browser.

Touchpad
The built-in touchpad is a PS/2-compatible pointing device that senses movement on its surface. This means the cursor responds as you move your finger on the surface of the touchpad. The central location on the palm rest provides optimum comfort and support.
NOTE: When using an external USB or serial mouse, you can press Fn-F7 to disable the touchpad. If you are using an external PS/2 mouse, the touchpad is automatically disabled.
Touchpad basics
The following items teach you how to use the touchpad:
!
!
!
Move your finger across the touchpad to move the cursor.
Press the left (1) and right (3) buttons located on the edge of the touchpad to do selection and execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the left and right buttons on a mouse.
Tapping on the touchpad produces similar results.
Use the center (2) button (top and bottom) to scroll up or down a page. This button mimics your cursor pressing on the right scroll bar of Windows applications.

Setting the Boot Drive Sequence
The Boot Drive Sequence section lists boot priorities (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th) for bootable drives in your computer.
For example, the default value (1st:Floppy Disk, 2nd:CD-ROM, 3rd:HDD and 4th:LANDesk (R) Service Agent) tells the computer to first search for a bootable floppy disk in the floppy drive. If it finds one present, it boots up from that floppy disk. If not, the computer continues to search for a bootable CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive.
If it cannot boot up from the CD-ROM, it continues by booting up from the Hard Disk.
To set the boot drive sequence, use the cursor up/down keys to select a priority level (1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th); then use the cursor left/right keys to select the device for that priority level.

Replace the touchpad.
3.
Replace the main board.
After you use the touchpad, the pointer drifts on the screen for a short time. This self-acting pointer movement can occur when a slight, steady pressure is applied to the touchpad pointer. This symptom is not a hardware problem. No service actions are necessary if the pointer movement stops in a short period of time.
72 Chapter 4
Power-On Self-Test (POST) Error Message
The POST error message index lists the error message and their possible causes. The most likely cause is listed first.
NOTE: Perform the FRU replacement or actions in the sequence shown in FRU/Action column, if the FRU replacement does not solve the problem, put the original part back in the computer. Do not replace a non-defective FRU.
This index can also help you determine the next possible FRU to be replaced when servicing a computer.
If the symptom is not listed, see “Undetermined Problems” on page 80.
The following lists the error messages that the BIOS displays on the screen and the error symptoms classified by function.
NOTE: Most of the error messages occur during POST. Some of them display information about a hardware device, e.g., the amount of memory installed. Others may indicate a problem with a device, such as the way it has been configured.
NOTE: If the system fails after you make changes in the BIOS Setup Utility menus, reset the computer, enter
Setup and install Setup defaults or correct the error.

Intermittent Problems
Intermittent system hang problems can be caused by a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as: cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or software errors. FRU replacement should be considered only when a recurring problem exists.
When analyzing an intermittent problem, do the following:
1.
Run the advanced diagnostic test for the main board in loop mode at least 10 times.
2.
If no error is detected, do not replace any FRU.
3.
If any error is detected, replace the FRU. Rerun the test to verify that there are no more errors.
Undetermined Problems
The diagnostic problems does not identify which adapter or device failed, which installed devices are incorrect, whether a short circuit is suspected, or whether the system is inoperative.
Follow these procedures to isolate the failing FRU (do not isolate non-defective FRU).
NOTE: Verify that all attached devices are supported by the computer.
1.
Power-off the computer.
2.
Visually check them for damage. If any problems are found, replace the FRU.
3.
Remove or disconnect all of the following devices:
!
!
!
!
Non-Acer devices
Printer, mouse, and other external devices
Battery pack
Hard disk drive
!
!
DIMM
CD-ROM/Floppy diskette drive Module
!
PC Cards
4.
Power-on the computer.
5.
Determine if the problem has changed.
6.
If the problem does not recur, reconnect the removed devices one at a time until you find the failing FRU.
7.
If the problem remains, replace the following FRU one at a time. Do not replace a non-defective FRU:
