Motherboard CMOS Discharge

If any problems such as incorrect CMOS settings, the CMOS data can be cleared by short-circuiting the

CMOS CLRP2 jumpers. Open the memory bay door and short-circuit the jumpers near the DDR socket, using a metal conductivity tool.

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 140.):

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

Chapter 4 159

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 provide you the standard operating procedures of clearing password and BIOS recovery for

Packard Bell EasyNote LJ65. Packard Bell EasyNote LJ65 provides one Hardware Open Gap on main board for clearing password check, and one Hotkey for enabling BIOS Recovery.

Clearing Password Check

Hardware Open Gap Description is as follows:

Item

CLRP2/CLRP3

Description

Clear CMOS Jumper

Location

Memory bay (near DDR socket)

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.

Open the back cover of the machine.

3.

Disconnect the RTC Battery cable and locate the G1 jumper.

4.

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

5.

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.

6.

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

7.

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).

Chapter 5 173

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 by USB flash crisis disk:

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.

Plug in the USB disk.

2.

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

3.

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

4.

Copy the KAYF0X64.fd BIOS file into USB flash disk root directory.

NOTE: Do not place any other *.fd file in the USB flash disk root directory.

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.
