2.3 Setup Options
The ThinkPad 500 has two setup options that allow you to specify how the
computer operates. The setup programs and the elements they control are:
Standard-System Parameters Setup
Time
Date
Password
Diskette drive
Hard disk drive

Parallel port
Power Management Setup

¦ ¦
¦ Before using the power saving features, be sure to read and observe ¦
¦ the following precautions: ¦
¦ ¦
¦ If you enter Suspend or Hibernate mode with a diskette inserted in ¦
¦ the diskette drive, the same diskette must be placed back in the ¦
¦ drive before attempting to resume normal operation. ¦
¦ If you enter Suspend or Hibernate mode with a PCMCIA card inserted ¦
¦ in the PCMCIA slot, the same PCMCIA card must be placed back in ¦
¦ the slot before attempting to resume normal operation. ¦
¦ ¦
¦ Hibernate mode does not save/restore the status of PCMCIA cards. ¦
¦ When you resume normal operation from Hibernate mode, the PCMCIA ¦
¦ card is no longer configured and will not be recognized by the ¦
¦ system. ¦
¦ If the system is connected to a Local Area Network (LAN) that ¦
¦ periodically polls for station activity, the LAN-connection may be ¦
¦ terminated while the system is in Suspend or Hibernate mode. Any ¦
¦ further attempt to access the network results in a brief delay and ¦
¦ the system appears to hang (up to 1 minute, depending on the ¦
¦ network). After the delay, an error is displayed. Follow the ¦
¦ instructions on the screen to restore normal operation. ¦
¦ Any software program that was running over the LAN is not ¦
¦ re-entered when you resume normal operation from Hibernate or ¦
¦ Suspend modes. ¦
