Boot Sequence
The procedure for starting-up your Tablet PC is
termed the Bootup sequence and involves your
Tablet PC’s BIOS. When your Tablet PC is first
turned on, the main system memory is empty,
and it needs to find instructions to start up your
Tablet PC. This information is in the BIOS
program. Each time you power up or restart your
Tablet PC, it goes through a boot sequence
which displays a Fujitsu logo until your operating
system is loaded. During booting, your Tablet
PC is performing a standard boot sequence
including a Power On Self Test (POST). When
the boot sequence is completed without a failure
and without a request for the BIOS Setup Utility,
the system displays the operating system’s
opening screen.
The boot sequence is executed when:
• You turn on the power to your Tablet PC.
• You restart your Tablet PC from the Windows
Shut Down dialog box.
• The software initiates a system restart.
Example: When you install a new application.
• You reset the system by pressing the three
keys [Ctrl+Alt+Del].

Starting Your Tablet PC
Power On
The Power/Suspend/Resume button is used to
turn on your LifeBook T Series Tablet PC from
its off state. Once you have connected your AC
adapter or charged the internal Lithium ion
battery, you can power on your Tablet PC.
When you turn on your Tablet PC be sure
you have a power source. This means that
a battery is installed and charged, or that
the AC adapter is connected and has power.
Press the Power/Suspend/Resume button to
start your system. When you are done working
you can either leave your Tablet PC in Standby
mode, or you can turn it off.
Do not carry your Tablet PC around with the
power on or subject it to shocks or vibration,
as you risk damaging your Tablet PC.
When you Power On your Tablet PC, it will
perform a Power On Self Test (POST) to check
the internal parts and configuration for correct
functionality. If a fault is found, your Tablet PC
will emit an audio warning and/or an error
message will be displayed. Depending on the
nature of the problem, you may be able to
continue by starting the operating system or by
entering the BIOS setup utility and revising the
settings.
After satisfactory completion of the Power On
Self Test (POST), your Tablet PC will load your
operating system.
Never turn off your Tablet PC during the
Power On Self Test (POST) or it will cause
an error message to be displayed when you
turn your Tablet PC on the next time.
