Dealing With Problems
(Advanced)
At the time of purchase, the display setting is preset for an external display. If you
connect an external display, the screen is displayed on the external display.
When there is no display to an external display,
• Check your cable connection to the external display.
• Confirm your display is powered on.
• Check the settings for your external display.
Try changing the display by pressing
Fn

When displaying only through an external display, if the computer is shut down by
using the suspend or hibernation function, there will be no display on the LCD
unless the external display is connected when operations are resumed. In this
case, connect the external display.
Has the computer been set to the power-saving mode?
To resume operation of your computer from ECO mode, press any key (like

displayed.

ments are functioning properly, no defect is considered to exist.
Select [Start] - [Settings] - [Control Panel] - [Mouse] - [Motion] and try to change the
speed or acceleration.

touch pad, only scroll operations are possible for the right part or bottom part of the
touch pad. In this case, cursor operations are possible by using the work surface
excluding the right part or bottom part. When no mode is set, the entire surface of the
touch pad can be used for cursor operations.
