Frequently Asked Questions
This is a list of possible situations that may arise during the use of your
notebook, and it gives easy answers and solutions to these questions.
I press the power switch, but my notebook does not start or
boot-up.
Look at the Power indicator:
•
If it is not lit, no power is being applied to your notebook. Check the
following:
•
If you are running on battery power, it may be low and unable to power
your notebook. Connect the AC adapter to recharge the battery pack.
•
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged in properly to your notebook and to
the power outlet.
•
If it is lit, check the following:
•
If the Standby indicator is lit, your notebook is in Standby mode. Press
any key or tap on the touchpad to resume.
•
Is a non-bootable (non-system) diskette in the floppy drive? Remove or
replace it with a system diskette and press Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart the
system.
The operating system files may be damaged or missing. Insert the startup disk
you created during Windows setup into the floppy drive and press Ctrl-Alt-Del
to restart the system. This will diagnose your system and make necessary
fixes.
Nothing appears on the screen.
Your notebook’s power management system automatically blanks the screen
to save power. Press any key to turn the display back on.
If pressing a key does not turn the display back on, two things might be the
cause:
•
The brightness level might be too low. Press Fn-
←
and Fn-
→
to adjust the
brightness level.
•
The display device might be set to an external monitor. Press the display
toggle hot key Fn-F3 to toggle the display back to your notebook.
