Problems when you turn on the computer
209
If the computer will not start after it has been turned off for a
while, remove the battery and reinsert it. For instructions on
removing the battery, see “Changing batteries” on page 102.
The computer starts but, when you press a key on the
keyboard or touch the AccuPoint II, nothing happens.
You are probably in Resume Mode and have a software or
resource conflict. When this happens, turning the power on returns
you to the problem instead of restarting the system. To clear the
condition, press
Ctrl
,
Alt,
and
Del
simultaneously or press the reset
button.
Clearing the condition may get you running by disabling Resume
Mode, but it won't solve a resource conflict. Read the
documentation that came with the conflicting device and
“Resolving a hardware conflict” on page 213.
The message “WARNING: RESUME FAILURE. PRESS
ANY KEY TO CONTINUE” appears.
This message shows that Resume Mode is disabled. The screen
you were last working on cannot be restored. Press any key to
continue the startup process.
The Resume failure message may be caused by one or more of
these conditions:
❖
The battery pack is completely discharged and the system is
not receiving power through the AC adapter.
❖
You turned off the power while the system was accessing a
disk drive.
❖
You removed the battery pack while operating the computer
without the AC adapter connected.
❖
You turned off the power while the system was sending or
receiving data through a serial port or parallel port.
