The following items show you how to use the TouchPad:

•

•

Move your finger across the TouchPad (1) to move the cursor.

Press the left (2) and right (3) buttons located beneath the TouchPad to perform selection and execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the left and right buttons on a mouse.

Tapping on the TouchPad is the same as clicking the left button.

Tap once.

Tap twice (at the same speed as double-clicking a mouse button); rest your finger on the TouchPad on the second tap and drag the cursor.

Using the Keyboard

The keyboard has full-sized keys and an embedded numeric keypad, separate cursor, lock, Windows, function and special keys.

Lock Keys and embedded numeric keypad

The keyboard has three lock keys which you can toggle on and off.

Lock key

Caps Lock

Num Lock

<Fn> + <F11>

Scroll Lock <Fn> +

<F12>

Description

When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed are in uppercase.

When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in numeric mode. The keys function as a calculator (complete with the arithmetic operators +, -, *, and /). Use this mode when you need to do a lot of numeric data entry. A better solution would be to connect an external keypad.

When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when you press the up or down arrow keys respectively. Scroll Lock does not work with some applications.

The embedded numeric keypad functions like a desktop numeric keypad. It is indicated by small characters located on the upper right corner of the keycaps. To simplify the keyboard legend, cursor-control key symbols are not printed on the keys.

Chapter 4 129

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 system 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.

NOTE: Verify that the power supply being used at the time of the failure is operating correctly. (See “Power On

Issue” on page 118.):

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/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:

• System board

• LCD assembly

Clearing Password Check and BIOS Recovery

This section provides you with the standard operating procedures of clearing password and BIOS recovery for eMachines G630/G430. The machine provides one Hardware Open Gap on main board for clearing password check, and one Hotkey for enabling BIOS Recovery.

Clearing Password Check

Steps for Clearing BIOS Password Check

If users set BIOS Password (Supervisor Password and/or User Password) for a security reason, BIOS will ask the password during systems POST or when systems enter to BIOS Setup menu. However, once it is necessary to bypass the password check, users need to short the HW Gap to clear the password by the following steps:

1.

Power Off the system, and remove HDD, AC and Battery from the machine.

2.

Disconnect the RTC Battery cable and locate the R379 jumper.

3.

Use an electric conductivity tool to short the two points of the HW Gap.

4.

Plug in AC, keep the short condition on the HW Gap, and press Power Button to power on the system till

BIOS POST finish. Then remove the tool from the HW Gap.

5.

Restart system. Press F2 key to enter BIOS Setup menu.

6.

If there is no Password request, BIOS Password is cleared. Otherwise, please follow the steps and try again.

NOTE: These steps are only for clearing BIOS Password (Supervisor Password and User Password).

BIOS Recovery by Crisis Disk

BIOS Recovery Boot Block:

BIOS Recovery Boot Block is a special block of BIOS. It is used to boot up the system with minimum BIOS initialization. Users can enable this feature to restore the BIOS firmware to a successful one once the previous

BIOS flashing process failed.

BIOS Recovery Hotkey:

The system provides a function hotkey: Fn+Esc , for enable BIOS Recovery process when system is powered on during BIOS POST. To use this function, it is strongly recommended to have the AC adapter and Battery present. If this function is enabled, the system will force the BIOS to enter a special BIOS block, called Boot

Block.

Steps for BIOS Recovery from USB Storage:

Before doing this, prepare the Crisis USB key. The Crisis USB key could be made by executing the Crisis Disk program in another system with Windows XP OS.

Follow the steps below:

1.

Copy the xxxxx.wph

BIOS file into the Crisis folder which is included with the crisis program.

2.

Rename the xxxxx.wph

file to BIOS.wph

.

3.

Plug in the USB disk.

4.

Launch the wincris.exe

program to create a USB Crisis Disk. Click Start to initiate the process.

5.

Select the Quick Format option to format the disk and click Start . Follow the instructions on the screen to create the disk.

To use the Crisis USB key, do the following:

1.

Plug USB storage into USB port.

2.

Press Fn + ESC button then plug in AC power.

The Power button flashes orange once.

3.

Press Power button to initiate system CRISIS mode.

When CRISIS is complete, the system auto restarts with a workable BIOS.

4.

Update the latest version BIOS for this machine by regular BIOS flashing process.
