How to Start
2.3
Starting W511 Series Notebook Computer
The Power/ Resume button is found on the top of the base unit.
Press the button to start your notebook computer and check if the
Power LED turns on.
After a few seconds, the notebook’s display will turn on and your
notebook computer will begin to execute the Power On Self Test or
POST to check if all system components are running properly. Any
error found during the test will be displayed on the screen and may
generate short beep sound as well.
After the test, the screen will also display a message “press <F2> to
enter SETUP”. You don’t need to run this program at the moment as
your dealer already made the necessary settings for your notebook
computer optimal operation. Refer to Chapter 5 on running the
SETUP program later.
After the test has completed, your notebook computer will start to
search and boot up the operating system from your hard drive. The
notebook computer normally comes with a Windows operating sys-
tem pre-installed in your hard drive. Consult the Windows manual on
how to use the program. If not, contact your dealer for assistance.
