It is advisable to also remove your battery in order to prevent accidentally turning the machine on. VI • Only use a power adapter approved for use with this computer. • Your AC adapter may be designed for international travel but it still requires a steady, uninterrupted power supply. If you are unsure of your local power specifications, consult your service representative or local power company. • The power adapter may have either a 2-prong or a 3-prong grounded plug. The third prong is an important safety feature; do not defeat its purpose. If you do not have access to a compatible outlet, have a qualified electrician install one. • When you want to unplug the power cord, be sure to disconnect it by the plug head, not by its wire. • Make sure the socket and any extension cord(s) you use can support the total current load of all the connected devices. • Before cleaning the computer, make sure it is disconnected from any external power supplies (i.e. AC adapter or car adapter). Do not plug in the power cord if you are wet. Do not use the power cord if it is broken. Do not place heavy objects on the power cord. Preface Battery Precautions • Only use batteries designed for this computer. The wrong battery type may explode, leak or damage the computer. • Recharge the batteries using the notebook’s system. Incorrect recharging may make the battery explode. • Do not try to repair a battery pack. Refer any battery pack repair or replacement to your service representative or qualified service personnel. • Keep children away from, and promptly dispose of a damaged battery. Always dispose of batteries carefully. Batteries may explode or leak if exposed to fire, or improperly handled or discarded. • Keep the battery away from metal appliances. • Affix tape to the battery contacts before disposing of the battery. • Do not touch the battery contacts with your hands or metal objects. Battery Disposal The product that you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The battery is recyclable. At the end of its useful life, under various state and local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream. Check with your local solid waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper disposal. Caution Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions. VII Preface Cleaning Do not apply cleaner directly to the computer; use a soft clean cloth. Do not use volatile (petroleum distillates) or abrasive cleaners on any part of the computer. Servicing Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Doing so may violate your warranty and expose you and the computer to electric shock. Refer all servicing to authorized service personnel. Unplug the computer from the power supply. Then refer servicing to qualified service personnel under any of the following conditions: • • • • • When the power cord or AC/DC adapter is damaged or frayed. If the computer has been exposed to rain or other liquids. If the computer does not work normally when you follow the operating instructions. If the computer has been dropped or damaged (do not touch the poisonous liquid if the LCD panel breaks). If there is an unusual odor, heat or smoke coming from your computer. Removal Warning When removing any cover(s) and screw(s) for the purposes of device upgrade, remember to replace the cover(s) and screw(s) before turning the computer on. VIII Preface Travel Considerations Packing As you get ready for your trip, run through this list to make sure the system is ready to go: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Check that the battery pack and any spares are fully charged. Power off the computer and peripherals. Close the display panel and make sure it’s latched. Disconnect the AC adapter and cables. Stow them in the carrying bag. The AC adapter uses voltages from 100 to 240 volts so you won’t need a second voltage adapter. However, check with your travel agent to see if you need any socket adapters. Put the notebook in its carrying bag and secure it with the bag’s straps. If you’re taking any peripherals (e.g. a printer, mouse or digital camera), pack them and those devices’ adapters and/or cables. Anticipate customs - Some jurisdictions may have import restrictions or require proof of ownership for both hardware and software. Make sure your “papers” are handy. Power Off Before Traveling Make sure that your notebook is completely powered off before putting it into a travel bag (or any such container). Putting a notebook which is powered on in a travel bag may cause the vents/intakes to be blocked. To prevent your computer from overheating make sure nothing blocks the vent/fan intake while the computer is in use. IX Preface On the Road In addition to the general safety and maintenance suggestions in this preface, and Chapter 8: Troubleshooting, keep these points in mind: Hand-carry the notebook - For security, don’t let it out of your sight. In some areas, computer theft is very common. Don’t check it with “normal” luggage. Baggage handlers may not be sufficiently careful. Avoid knocking the computer against hard objects. Beware of Electromagnetic fields - Devices such as metal detectors & X-ray machines can damage the computer, hard disk, floppy disks, and other media. They may also destroy any stored data - Pass your computer and disks around the devices. Ask security officials to hand-inspect them (you may be asked to turn it on). Note: Some airports also scan luggage with these devices. Fly safely - Most airlines have regulations about the use of computers and other electronic devices in flight. These restrictions are for your safety, follow them. If you stow the notebook in an overhead compartment, make sure it’s secure. Contents may shift and/or fall out when the compartment is opened. Get power where you can - If an electrical outlet is available, use the AC adapter and keep your battery(ies) charged. Keep it dry - If you move quickly from a cold to a warm location, water vapor can condense inside the computer. Wait a few minutes before turning it on so that any moisture can evaporate. X Preface Developing Good Work Habits Developing good work habits is important if you need to work in front of the computer for long periods of time. Improper work habits can result in discomfort or serious injury from repetitive strain to your hands, wrists or other joints. The following are some tips to reduce the strain: • Adjust the height of the chair and/or desk so that the keyboard is at or slightly below the level of your elbow. Keep your forearms, wrists, and hands in a relaxed position. • Your knees should be slightly higher than your hips. Place your feet flat on the floor or on a footrest if necessary. • Use a chair with a back and adjust it to support your lower back comfortably. • Sit straight so that your knees, hips and elbows form approximately 90-degree angles when you are working. • Take periodic breaks if you are using the computer for long periods of time. Remember to: • Alter your posture frequently. • Stretch and exercise your body several times a day. • Take periodic breaks when you work at the computer for long periods of time. Frequent and short breaks are better than fewer and longer breaks. XI Preface Lighting Proper lighting and comfortable display viewing angle can reduce eye strain and muscle fatigue in your neck and shoulders. • Position the display to avoid glare or reflections from overhead lighting or outside sources of light. • Keep the display screen clean and set the brightness and contrast to levels that allow you to see the screen clearly. • Position the display directly in front of you at a comfortable viewing distance. • Adjust the display-viewing angle to find the best position.

Click the Format (tab) and select a country from the list. Figure 3 - 12 TV Format 3 - 16 Enabling TV Display Advanced Controls Power Management Features To conserve power, especially when using the battery, your computer uses the ACPI power management system. Power management conserves power by controlling individual components of the computer (the monitor and hard disk drive) or the whole system. Advanced Configuration and Power Interface The ACPI interface provides the computer with enhanced power saving techniques and gives the operating system (OS) direct control over the power and thermal states of devices and processors. For example, it enables the OS to set devices into low-power states based on user settings and information from applications. ACPI is fully supported in Windows 2000 and Windows XP. OS Note Power management functions will vary slightly depending on your operating system. For more information it is best to refer to the user’s manual of your operating system. (Note: All pictures used on the following pages are from the Windows XP OS.) Power Management Features 3 - 17 3 Advanced Controls Enabling Power Options Power Options are enabled through the control panel in your Windows system (Power Options). With other operating systems you may have power management available, so check your documentation. 3 Figure 3 - 13 Power Options Control Panel You may conserve power through individual components or throughout the whole system. 3 - 18 Enabling Power Options Advanced Controls Power Schemes You can set your computer to conserve power through individual components by means of Power Schemes. You can also adjust the settings for each scheme to set the monitor to turn off after a specified time, and the computer's hard disk motor to turn off if the hard disk drive has not been accessed for a specified period of time (if the system reads or writes data, the hard disk motor will be turned back on). The schemes may also be set to set a specified time for the system to enter Standby or Hibernate modes (see “Conserving Power (System)” on page 3 - 21). Resuming Operation The system can resume from Monitor or Hard Disk Standby by pressing a key on the keyboard. Figure 3 - 14 Power Schemes Enabling Power Options 3 - 19 3 Advanced Controls 3 Each Windows Power Scheme will also adjust the processor performance of your machine in order to save power. This is worth bearing in mind if you are experiencing any reduced performance (especially under DC/battery power). Choose the Home/Office scheme for maximum performance when the computer is powered from an AC power source. Choose the Max Battery scheme (bear in mind that this scheme may slow down the overall performance of the computer in order to save power) for maximum power saving when the computer is battery (DC power) powered. Windows will use Portable/Laptop as the default scheme. For advanced information see “Power Schemes & Processor Performance” on page A - 2. The information contained in “Intel CPU SpeedStep Controls” on page A - 3 will help you maximize the balance between power saving and processor performance. 3 - 20 Enabling Power Options Advanced Controls Conserving Power (System) With this function you can stop the computer’s operation and restart where you left off. This system features Standby and Hibernate sleep mode levels (Hibernate mode will need to be enabled by clicking the option in the Hibernate tab in the Power Options control panel - Figure 3 - 15 on page 3 - 22). Hibernate Mode vs. Shutdown Hibernate mode and Shutdown are the same in that the system is off and you need to press the power button to turn it on. Their main difference is: When you come back from hibernation, you can return to where you last left off (what was on your desktop) without reopening the application(s) and file(s) you last used. You can use either method depending on your needs. Standby Mode vs. Hibernate Mode If you want to stay away from your work for just a while, you can put the system on standby instead of in hibernation. It takes a longer time to wake up the system from Hibernate mode than from Standby mode. Enabling Power Options 3 - 21 3 Advanced Controls 3 System Resume The system can resume from Standby mode by: • Pressing the power button • Pressing a key on the keyboard • An alarm resume that is enabled and expires • An incoming call received on the modem (if enabled) Standby Standby saves the least amount of power, but takes the shortest time to return to full operation. During Standby the hard disk is turned off, and the CPU is made to idle at its slowest speed. All open applications are retained in memory. When you are not using your computer for a certain length of time, which you specify in the operating system, it will enter Standby mode to save power. Hibernate Hibernate uses no power and saves all of your information on a part of the HDD before it turns the system off. Although it saves the most power it takes the longest time to return to full operation. You can set your computer to automatically enter Hibernate mode when the battery power is almost depleted. You will need to enable Hibernate mode from the Hibernate tab in the Power Options control panel. The system will resume from Hibernate mode by pressing the power button. • Network card activity (if enabled) Figure 3 - 15 Enable Hibernation 3 - 22 Enabling Power Options Advanced Controls Configuring the Power Button The power button may be set to send the computer in to either Standby or Hibernate mode. In Standby mode, the LED will flash green. In Hibernate mode the LED will be off. If you are in a power saving mode set to save power through individual components (e.g. hard disk, monitor), the LED will remain green. Sleep Button You may also configure the Sleep/Resume key combination (Fn + Esc) from the menu illustrated in Figure 3 16. In Windows this is referred to as the Sleep button.

Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Battery Information Please follow these simple guidelines to get the best use out of your battery. New Battery Always completely discharge, then fully charge, a new battery (see “Battery FAQ” on page 3 - 25 for instructions on how to do this). Battery Life Your computer’s battery life is dependent upon many factors, including the programs you are running, and peripheral devices attached. Power Options (you may set low battery Alarms and actions, and check the Power Meter from the Power Options control panel), and settings in the OS will help prolong the battery life if configured appropriately. Figure 3 - 17 Power Options (Alarm & Power Meter) 3 - 24 Battery Information Advanced Controls Battery life may be shortened through improper maintenance. To optimize the life and improve its performance, fully discharge and recharge the battery at least once every 30 days. We recommend that you do not remove the battery yourself. If you do need to remove the battery for any reason see “Removing the Battery” on page 6 - 3. Battery FAQ How do I completely discharge the battery? Use the computer with battery power until it shuts down due to a low battery. Don’t turn off the computer by yourself even when you see a message that indicates the battery is critically low, just let the computer use up all of the battery power and shut down on its own. Disable the Power Options functions in the Control Panel, especially any Alarms (unclick the tickboxes - see 3 24) and Schemes (change all the settings to Never - see page 3 - 19). As the battery nears the end of its life save and close any critical files. How do I fully charge the battery? When charging the battery, don’t stop until the LED charging indicator light changes from orange to green. How do I maintain the battery? Completely discharge and charge the battery at least once every 30 days or after about 20 partial discharges. Conserving Battery Power To conserve battery power: Lower the brightness level of the LCD display. The system will decrease LCD brightness slightly to save power when it is not powered by the AC adapter. Close modem or communication applications when they are not being used. Remove any unused PC Cards from the computer (PC Cards quickly use up battery power even if the system enters sleep mode). Disconnect any unnecessary external devices.

The system takes advantage of some newer hardware components for which the latest versions of most available operating systems haven’t built in drivers and utilities. Thus, some of the system components won’t be auto-configured with an appropriate driver or utility during operating system installation. Instead, you need to manually install some system-required drivers and utilities. In this chapter, we group driver and utility installation instructions by operating system. The following operating systems are covered. The Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s Manual CD-ROM contains the drivers and utilities necessary for the proper operation of the computer. Additional CD-ROMs are provided with any optional modules included in your purchase (see below). Table 4 - 1 on page 4-7 lists what you need to install manually according to your choice of the operating system. It is very important that the drivers are installed in the order indicated in the table. • Windows 2000 Professional • Windows XP Professional and Home Editions Module Driver Installation The procedures for installing drivers for the optional Wireless LAN, PC Camera and Bluetooth modules are provided in “Wireless & PC Camera Modules” on page 7 - 1. Make sure that the drivers are installed in the order indicated in Table 4 - 1 on page 4-7. If your purchase does not include any of the modules, DO NOT install the drivers for them. Overview 4 - 1 4 Drivers & Utilities Navigate (Browse..) to D: 4 You will notice that many of the instructions for driver installation require you to “Navigate (Browse) to D:”. We assume that you will install all drivers and utilities from the built-in CD device and it is assigned to “Drive D:”. In addition, all file extensions can be seen In this case “D:” is the drive specified for your CD device. Not all computers are setup the same way, and some computers have the CD listed under a different drive letter - e.g. if you have two hard drives (or hard disk partitions) one may be designated as “Drive C:” and the other as “Drive D:”. In this case the CD device may be designated as “Drive E:” - Please make sure you are actually navigating to the correct drive letter for the CD device. When you click the Browse (button) after clicking Run in the Start menu you will see the “Look in:” dialog box at the top of the Browse window.

BIOS Utilities Chapter 5: BIOS Utilities Overview This chapter is about the computer’s built-in software. Your computer comes with built-in BIOS (Basic Input Output System) which is an essential set of software routines stored on a chip in your computer. These routines serve to describe your computer’s hardware to your chosen operating system, and provides an interface between the two. The BIOS includes the POST (Power On Self Test) and the SCU (System Configuration Utility). The POST performs diagnostic procedures at startup, the SCU allows you to configure your computer. Settings Warning Incorrect settings can cause your system to malfunction. To correct mistakes return to the SCU, go to the Exit menu and select the Default Settings and click OK. There is one general rule: Don’t make any changes unless you are sure of what you are doing. Many of the settings are required by the system, and changing them could cause it to become unstable or worse. If you have any doubts, consult your service representative. If your computer has never been set up, or you are making important changes to the system, then you should review this chapter first and note the original settings found in the SCU. Even if you are a beginner, keep a record of the settings you find and any changes you make. This information could be useful if your system ever needs servicing. Overview 5 - 1 5 BIOS Utilities The POST Screen 5 1. 2. 3. 4. BIOS information CPU type Memory status Enter SCU prompt appears only during POST Note: The POST screen as pictured above is for guideline purposes only. The POST screen on your computer may appear slightly different. If you choose the Fast Boot option you will see an abbreviated version of this screen. Figure 5 - 1 POST Screen The Power-On Self Test (POST) Each time you turn on the computer, the system takes a few seconds to conduct a POST, including a quick test of the on-board RAM. As the POST proceeds, the computer will tell you if there is anything wrong. If there is a problem which prevents the system from booting, it will display a system summary and prompt you to run SCU. If there are no problems, the SCU (System Configuration Utility) prompt will disappear and the system will load the operating system. Once that starts, you can’t get into the SCU without rebooting the computer. 1 Insyde Software MobilePro BIOS Version 1.01 Copyright 1983 - 2002 Insyde Software Corp.

There are two categories, “fatal” and “non-fatal”. Fatal Errors These stop the boot process and usually indicate there is something seriously wrong with your system. Take the computer to your service representative or authorized service center as soon as possible. Non-Fatal Errors This kind of error still allows you to boot. You will get a message identifying the problem (make a note of this message!) followed by the prompt: • Press <F1> to resume • Press F2 to enter System Configuration Utility Press F1 to see if the boot process can continue. It may work, without the correct configuration. Press F2 to run the SCU program and try to correct the problem. If you still get an error message after you change the setting, or if the “cure” seems even worse, call for help. The Power-On Self Test (POST) 5 - 3 5 BIOS Utilities BIOS Settings V’s OS Settings 5 Though many options such as power management and display settings may be set in the BIOS, these are usually best set in your OS (e.g. Windows). Older OS’s such as DOS etc. may still rely entirely on the setup information from the BIOS. “Plug-n-Play” OS’s, such as the various Windows systems, may override these settings with the settings from the system’s Control Panel. The System Configuration Utility The SCU program tells the system how to configure itself and manage basic features and subsystems (e.g. port configuration and power management). The settings are stored in a nonvolatile battery and written to the CMOS RAM. This means that the settings are saved even when the computer is turned off. Entering Setup To enter the SCU, turn on the computer and press F2 when you see the prompt “Press F2 to enter System Configuration Utility”. The prompt seen in Figure 5 - 1 is usually present very briefly after the system is powered on. If you get a “Keyboard Error” (usually because you pressed F2 too quickly) just press F2 again. If the computer is already on, reboot and then hold down F2 when you see the prompt. The SCU’s main menu will appear. 5 - 4 The System Configuration Utility BIOS Utilities Working with the Menu Bar You can use the mouse to navigate around the various menus and submenus of the SCU, or alternatively, you can use the following key combinations: Keys Action Table 5 - 1 Alt Activates the menu bar SCU Menu Navigation Keys Left arrow/Right arrow → ← Type the highlighted letters Selects an option in the menu bar Left mouse button Down arrow ↓ Spacebar Enter Opens the pull-down menu bar options Right mouse button Esc Cancels the action Working with the Menu Bar 5 - 5 5 BIOS Utilities Working with the Pull-Down Menu Table 5 - 2 5 Pull-Down Menu Keys Once your desired menu bar item is highlighted, press Enter or left-click with the mouse to see the pull-down menu items.

Figure 7 - 6 Camera Controls PC Camera 7 - 21 7 Wireless & PC Camera Modules 7 7 - 22 Troubleshooting Chapter 8: Troubleshooting Overview Should you have any problems with your computer, before consulting your service representative, you may want to try to solve the problem yourself. This chapter lists some common problems and their possible solutions. This can’t anticipate every problem, but you should check here before you panic. If you don’t find the answer in these pages, make sure you have followed the instructions carefully and observed the safety precautions in the preface. If all else fails, talk to your service representative. You should also make a record of what happened and what remedies you tried. Of course, if something goes wrong, it will happen at the most inconvenient time possible, so you should preview this section just in case. If, after you’ve tried everything, and the system still won’t cooperate, try turning it off for a few minutes and then rebooting. You will lose any unsaved data, but it may start working again. Then call your service representative. Overview 8 - 1 8 Troubleshooting Basic Hints and Tips Many of the following may seem obvious but they are often the solution to a problem when your computer appears not to be working. • Power - Is the computer actually plugged into a working electrical outlet? If plugged into a power strip, make sure it is actually working. Check the LED Power Indicators (see “LED Power & Communication Indicators” on page 2 - 6) to see the computer’s power status. • Connections - Check all the cables to make sure that there are no loose connections anywhere. • Power Savings - Make sure that the system is not in Hibernate or Standby mode by pressing the keys configured in your Power Options (see “Configuring the Power Button” on page 3 - 23), the Fn + Esc key combination, or power button to wake-up the system. 8 • Brightness - Check the brightness of the screen by pressing the Fn + F9 and F10 keys to adjust the brightness (see “Advanced Video Controls” on page 3 - 2). • Display Choice - Press Fn + F6 to make sure the system is not set to “external only” display (see “Switching/Enabling Displays (Keyboard)” on page 3 - 8). • Boot Drive - Make sure there are no floppy disks in the drive (if you have one connected) when you start up your machine (this is a common cause of the message “Invalid system disk - Replace the disk, and then press any key” / “Remove disks or other media. Press any key to restart”). 8 - 2 Basic Hints and Tips Troubleshooting Backup and General Maintenance • Always backup your important data, and keep copies of your OS and programs safe, but close to hand. Don’t forget to note the serial numbers if you are storing them out of their original cases, e.g. in a CD wallet. • Run maintenance programs on your hard disk and OS as often as you can. You may schedule these programs to run at times when you are not using your computer. You can use those that are provided free with your OS, or buy the more powerful dedicated programs to do so. • Write down your passwords and keep them safe (away from your computer). This is especially important if you choose to use a Startup password for the SCU (see “Startup Menu” on page 5 8). • Keep copies of vital settings files such as network, dialup settings, mail settings etc. (even if just brief notes). Warranty The CPU is not a user serviceable part. Opening this compartment, or accessing the CPU in any way, may violate your warranty. Backup and General Maintenance 8 - 3 8 Troubleshooting Viruses • Install an Anti-Virus program and keep the definitions file (the file which tells your program which viruses to look for) up to date. New computer viruses are discovered daily, and some of them may seriously harm your computer and cause you to lose data. Anti-Virus programs are commercially available and the definitions file updates are usually downloadable directly from the internet. • Be careful when opening e-mail from sources you don’t know. Viruses are often triggered from within e-mail attachments so take care when opening any attached file. You can configure most Anti-Virus programs to check all e-mail attachments. Note: You should also beware of files from people you know as the virus may have infected an address book and been automatically forwarded without the person’s knowledge. 8 • Keep a “Boot Floppy Disk” or “Bootable CD-ROM” (this disk provides basic information which allows you to startup your computer) handy. You may refer to your OS’s documentation for instructions on how to make one, and many Anti-Virus programs will also provide such a disk (or at least instructions on how to make one). 8 - 4 Viruses Troubleshooting Upgrading and Adding New Hardware/Software • Do not be tempted to make changes to your Windows Registry unless you are very sure of what you are doing, otherwise you will risk severely damaging your system. • Don’t open your computer or undertake any repair or upgrade work if you are not comfortable with what you are doing. • Read the documentation. We can assume, since you are reading this that you are looking at the computer’s manual, but what about any new peripheral devices you have just purchased? Many problems are caused by the installation of new hardware and/or software. Always refer to the documentation of any new hardware and/or software, and pay particular attention to files entitled “READ ME” or “READ ME FIRST”. • When installing a new device always make sure the device is powered on, and in many cases you will need to restart the computer. Always check that all the cables are correctly connected. • Make sure you have installed the drivers for any new hardware you have installed (latest driver files are usually available to download from vendor’s websites). Upgrading and Adding New Hardware/Software 8 - 5 8 Troubleshooting • Thoroughly check any recent changes you made to your system as these changes may affect one or more system components, or software programs. If possible, go back and undo the change you just made and see if the problem still occurs. • Don’t over complicate things. The less you have to deal with then the easier the source of the problem may be found; Example - if your computer has many devices plugged into its ports, and a number of programs running, then it will be difficult to determine the cause of a problem. Try disconnecting all of the devices and restarting the computer with all the peripheral devices unplugged. A process of elimination (adding and removing devices and restarting where necessary) will often find the source of a problem, although this may be time consuming. 8 8 - 6 Upgrading and Adding New Hardware/Software Troubleshooting Power Problem Possible Cause - Solution You turned on the power but it doesn’t work. Battery missing / incorrectly installed. Check the battery bay, make sure the battery is present and seated properly (the design of the battery only allows it to go in one way). Make sure there’s nothing interfering with the battery contacts. The Battery LED power indicator , is blinking orange. Low Battery. Plug in the AC power source. If the computer doesn’t start up immediately, turn it off then on again. You are losing battery power too quickly. The system is using too much power. If your OS has a Power Options scheme (see “Power Schemes” on page 3 - 19) check its settings. You may also be using a PC Card device that is drawing a lot of power. Actual battery operating time is shorter than expected. The battery has not been fully discharged before being recharged. Make sure the battery is fully discharged and recharge it completely before reusing (see “Battery Information” on page 3 - 24). Power Options have been disabled. Go to the Control Panel in Windows and re-enable the options. A peripheral device or PC Card is consuming a lot of power. Turn off the unused device to save power. Power 8 - 7 8 Troubleshooting Problem The computer feels too hot. Possible Cause - Solution Make sure the computer is properly ventilated and the vents/fan intakes are not blocked. If this doesn’t cool it down, put the system into Hibernate mode or turn it off for an hour. Make sure the computer isn’t sitting on a thermal surface (see “Overheating” on page 1 19). Make sure you’re using the correct adapter. Make sure that your notebook is completely powered off before putting it into a travel bag (or any such container). Putting a notebook which is powered on in a travel bag may cause the vents/intakes to be blocked. 8 8 - 8 Power Troubleshooting Display Problem Nothing appears on screen. Possible Cause - Solution The system is in a power saving mode. Toggle the sleep/resume key combination, Fn + Esc (see “Function Keys and Numeric Keypad” on page 2 - 17). \ The screen controls need to be adjusted. Toggle the screen control key combinations Fn + F9/F10 (see “Advanced Video Controls” on page 3 - 2). If you’re connected to an external monitor, make sure it’s plugged in and turned on. You should also check the monitor’s own brightness and contrast controls. The computer is set for a different display. Toggle the screen display key combination, Fn + F6 (see “Switching/Enabling Displays (Keyboard)” on page 3 - 8). If an external monitor is connected, turn it on. The screen saver is activated. Press any key or touch the TouchPad. No image appears on the external monitor I have plugged in and powered on. You haven’t installed the video driver and configured it appropriately from the Control Panel. See “What to Install” on page 4 - 1 for instructions on installing the driver, and see “Making Adjustments for the Display” on page 3 - 4 for instructions on configuring the video driver. Display 8 - 9 8 Troubleshooting Boot Password Problem You forget the boot password. Possible Cause - Solution If you forget the password, you may have to discharge the battery of the CMOS. Contact your service representative for help. Password Warning 8 If you choose to set a boot password, NEVER forget your password. The consequences of this could be serious. If you cannot remember your boot password you must contact your vendor and you may lose all of the information on your hard disk. 8 - 10 Boot Password Troubleshooting Audio & CD Device Problem Possible Cause - Solution The sound cannot be heard or the volume is very low. The volume might be set too low. Check the volume control in the Volume Control Panel in the Windows taskbar, or use the key combination Fn + F11 and F12 (see “Function Keys and Numeric Keypad” on page 2 - 17) to adjust. The compact disc cannot be read. The compact disc is dirty. Clean it with a CD-ROM cleaner kit. The compact disc tray will not open when there is a disc in the tray. The compact disc is not correctly placed in the tray. Gently try to remove the disc using the eject hole (see “Loading Discs” on page 2 - 11). The DVD regional codes can no longer be changed. The code has been changed the maximum 5 times. See “DVD Regional Codes” on page 2 - 13. Media Warning When manually ejecting a CD/DVD, DO NOT use a sharpened pencil or similar object which may break, and become lodged in the hole. Audio & CD Device 8 - 11 8 Troubleshooting Keyboard Problem Unwelcome numbers appear when typing. Possible Cause - Solution If the LED is lit, then Num Lock is turned ON. Check that Padlock mode is not enabled (see “Numeric Keypad” on page 2 - 18). Other Keyboards 8 If your keyboard is damaged or you just want to make a change, you can use any standard USB keyboard. The system will detect and enable it automatically. However special functions/hot keys unique to the system’s regular keyboard may not work. 8 - 12 Keyboard Troubleshooting Operation Problem Possible Cause - Solution The system freezes or the screen goes dark. The system’s power saving features have timed-out. Use the AC adapter, press the sleep (Fn + Esc) key combination, or press the power button if no LEDs are lit. The system never goes into a power saving mode. Power Options features are not enabled. Go to the Windows Power Options menu and enable the features you prefer (see “Enabling Other Displays” on page 3 - 11). Make sure you have enabled Hibernate mode from the control panel. 8 Operation 8 - 13 Troubleshooting Modules Problem Possible Cause - Solution The Wireless LAN/ Bluetooth/PC Camera modules cannot be detected. The modules are off. Check the LED indicator to see if the modules are on or off (see “LED Status Indicators” on page 2 - 5). If the LED indicator is off, then press the Module On/Off button in order to enable the modules (see “Intel PRO/Wireless Mini PCI WLAN Module” on page 7 - 2, “Bluetooth Module” on page 7 - 11 and/or “PC Camera” on page 7 - 16). The Wireless LAN/ Bluetooth/PC Camera modules cannot be configured. The driver(s) for the module(s) have not been installed. Make sure you have installed the driver for the appropriate module (see “Intel PRO/Wireless Mini PCI WLAN Module” on page 7 - 2, “Bluetooth Module” on page 7 - 11 and/or “PC Camera” on page 7 - 16). 8 8 - 14 Modules Appendix A: Advanced Power Saving This Appendix contains information on Power Schemes and how they affect the computer’s CPU performance, and information on Intel CPU Speed Step controls.
