NOTE: The CMOS battery receives a charge when the
system is being operated on AC power. If the system
is off for more than one year, the CMOS battery will
drain and the ROM data will be lost. If the CMOS
battery is completely drained, you will be prompted
with a CMOS Checksum Error message during bootup
and given the choice of selecting F1 to resume or F2
to enter the Setup Program. Select F2, then reset the
System Time and System Date fields, and load the
default settings from the Exit menu. Then select Save
Changes and Exit to save the new configuration and
exit the Setup Program. Connect the AC adapter to
the notebook for 24 hours to recharge the CMOS
battery.
By activating user friendly Setup Program menus, you can
configure such items as:
•
Hard drives, diskette drives and peripherals
•
Password protection from unauthorized use
•
Power Management Features
The settings made in the Setup Program affect how the
notebook performs. It is important to try to understand all the
Setup Programs options and to make settings appropriate for the
way you use the notebook.
Navigating through the Setup Program
When turning on the notebook for the first time you may get a
message prompting you to run the Setup Program. A warning
message may appear on the screen if the hardware
configuration is changed or the Power On Self Test (POST) fails.
This message will inform you of any errors or invalid settings and
prompt you to run Setup to correct the problem.
