Starting Your LifeBook
POWER ON
Power and Suspend/Resume Button
The Power and Suspend/Resume button is used to power
on your LifeBook, to resume from Standby or
Save-to-Disk mode, to place your LifeBook in Standby or
Save-to-Disk mode or to power off. You can also turn off
your LifeBook by choosing
Shut Down from the
Windows Start menu.
Once you have connected your AC adapter or charged
the internal Lithium ion Battery, you can press this
button to Power On your LifeBook. (See Figure 2-4 on
page 8 for location)
When you Power On your LifeBook, it will perform a
Power On Self Test (POST) to check the internal parts
and configuration for correct functionality. If a fault is
found, your LifeBook will emit an audio warning and/or
an error message will be displayed. (See Power On Self
Test Messages on page 70 for more information)
Depending on the nature of the problem, you may be
able to continue by starting the operating system or by
entering the BIOS setup utility and revising the settings.
After satisfactory completion of the Power On Self Test
(POST), your LifeBook will load your operating system.
BOOT SEQUENCE
The procedure for starting-up your Fujitsu LifeBook is
termed the Bootup sequence and involves your Life-
Book’s BIOS. When your LifeBook is first turned on, the
main system memory is empty, and it needs to find
instructions to start up your LifeBook. This information
is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or
restart your LifeBook, it goes through a boot sequence
which displays a Fujitsu logo until your operating
system is loaded. During booting, your LifeBook is
performing a standard boot sequence including a Power
On Self Test (POST). When the boot sequence is
completed without a failure and without a request for
the BIOS Setup Utility, the system displays the operating
system’s opening screen.
The boot sequence is executed when:
■
You turn on the power to your LifeBook.
■
You restart your LifeBook from the Windows
Shut Down dialog box.
■
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].
BIOS SETUP UTILITY
The BIOS Setup Utility is a program that sets up the
operating environment for your LifeBook. Your BIOS
is set at the factory for normal operating conditions,
therefore there is no need to set or change the BIOS’
environment to operate your LifeBook.
The BIOS Setup Utility configures:
■
Device control feature parameters, such as changing
I/O addresses and boot devices.
■
System Data Security feature parameters, such
as passwords.
Entering the BIOS Setup Utility
To enter the BIOS Setup Utility do the following:
1. Turn on or restart your LifeBook.
2. Press the [F2] key once the Fujitsu logo appears
on the screen. This will open the main menu
of the BIOS Setup Utility with the current
settings displayed.
3. Press the [RIGHT ARROW] or [LEFT ARROW] key
to scroll through the other setup menus to review or
alter the current settings.
C A U T I O N
When you turn on your LifeBook be sure you have a
power source. This means that at least one battery is
installed and charged, or that the AC or Auto/Airline
adapter is connected and has power.
C A U T I O N
Do not carry your LifeBook around with the power on
or subject it to shocks or vibration, as you risk damaging
your LifeBook.
C A U T I O N
Never turn off your LifeBook during the Power On
Self Test (POST) or it will cause an error message to
be displayed when you turn your LifeBook on the next
time.
