BOOT SEQUENCE
Each time you power up or restart your
LifeBook B Series, it goes through a quiet boot
sequence that displays a Fujitsu logo until your
operating system is loaded. During quiet boot,
your notebook is performing a standard boot
sequence including a Power On Self Test
(POST). To access the ability to change the
drive that will be used for finding the operating
system, press the
Esc key anytime while the
Fujitsu logo is displayed. To enter the BIOS
setup utility press the
F2 key anytime while
the Fujitsu logo is displayed. When the boot
sequence is completed without a failure and
without a request for the setup utility, the
system displays the Windows opening screen.
The boot sequence is executed when:
■
You turn on power to the system using the
power switch on the right side panel of your
notebook.
(Figure 2-4 on page 11.)
■
You restart your computer from the
Shutdown Menu of the Start Menu.
■
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 at the same time twice in a
row. This method is not recommended since
it can result in loss of data.
P O I N T
The BIOS setup utility is entered by
pressing the
F2
key during the boot
while the Fujitsu logo is on the screen.
(See BIOS Setup Utility on page 44 for
more information.)
P O I N T
When error messages occur see Power on
Self Test (POST) Messages for help in
understanding the meaning and required
actions to be taken.
(See pages 78-80.)
IDENTIFYING THE DRIVES
Your notebook uses drive letters (Example A:,
B:, C:, D:, E:) to identify internal and external
devices such as hard drives, floppy disk drives,
CD-ROM drives and PC Cards. The most com-
monly assigned drive designators are listed
below. If you add other devices, the drive desig-
nators may be different. See your operating
system manual for setting drive designators.
Drive Designators

Installed inside your notebook.
D: CD-ROM drive.

CD-ROM drive.
