Things you must remember before working on your
computer
Let your computer acclimate itself
Your notebook can easily stand temperature extremes but it doesn’t like
rapid changes in temperature, like going from the cold outdoors to a
warm office. Rapid changes in temperature can cause water droplets to
condense inside your case, threatening to damage the electronic parts
inside.
After receiving your notebook when it’s hot or cold outside, try not to
power up the computer immediately, let the computer adjust to the room
temperature gradually at least for three to four hours.
If your system arrives in cold weather, do not apply power to
the computer or monitor until they have been allowed to come
to room temperature.
Heat, Cold, Humidity, and Glare
Find a suitable place for your computer that’s not too hot, too cold, too
dark, or too bright. Glare can make it hard to read the screen.
6
Try to avoid the computer components from being destroyed if it is
over heated, so try to allow plenty of room for air to circulate
around the case.
Do not block the ventilation opening.
Do not place your computer in direct sunlight.
Suitable place to work
Your computer will run well wherever you’re comfortable but extremes
of temperature and humidity can be challenging to your system’s parts.
There are some things you can tolerate that the computer can’t things
like static electricity, dust, water, steam and oil. In case you decide to pull
over for roadside computing, try to choose a clean, comfortable work area
for your system.
A lithium-ion battery pack will be available when you are traveling. If
you are running your system for the first time on battery power, remove
the battery from the package, install it into the system and recharge the
battery to fully prepare for service.

number intensive data entry. Your keyboard supports Windows by
incorporating the two Windows specific keys.
With the two Windows keys you will be able to access and take
advantage of many of the timesaving features of Windows software. The
function keys (F1-F12) on the top row of the keyboard, serve different
purposes and carry out different tasks depending on the application you
are running.
The cursor (arrow) keys (which are all located in the lower right corner of
your keyboard) and the [PgUp], [PgDn], [Home] and [End] keys (which
are located along the right edge of the keyboard) allow you to move the
active cursor of the computer to various locations on the screen or within
the document.
The embedded numeric keypad consists of 15 keys that make number
intensive input more convenient. Like the [Num Lock] key, these keys are
labeled in blue on the keycaps. Numeric assignments are located at the
upper right of each key.
When the numeric keypad is engaged, the NumLock icon will appear in
the System Window. The keypad is activated by pressing the [Fn] +
[NumLk] key. If an external keyboard is connected, pressing the
NumLock key on either the Notebook or external keyboard will

T ROUBLESHOOTING
This chapter describes locating and solving problems that you may
encounter while using your computer.
Locating a Problem
Problems with your computer can be caused by something as minor as an
unplugged power cord or as major as a damaged hard disk. The
information in this chapter is designed to help you find and solve minor
problems. If you try all the suggested solutions and you still have a
problem, make a list of what steps you have taken to correct the problem
and contact your dealer.
Successful troubleshooting is the result of careful observation, deductive
reasoning, and an organized approach to solving the problem.
The problems that you will encounter can be divided into two basic
categories: hardware problems and software problems. Hardware
problems can be further divided into electrical and mechanical problems.
You will know you have a hardware problem if the screen is dark, the
computer cannot read the disk drives, or you get an error message during
the Power-On Self Test (POST).
Software errors can occur at several levels. The ROM BIOS and the
operating system can give you a large number of error messages. On top
of this, each application software package has its own set of error
messages. It is important to determine whether the software error message
you are getting is from the application or the operating system. Once you
know this, you can look in the respective manual for a solution to the
problem.
Checking Cables and Connections
Start by performing a careful visual inspection of the exterior of the
computer. If no LEDs are illuminated, make sure that your computer and
its peripherals are getting power and communicating with each other
properly.
To check the power cables, and connections:
72
Error messages that indicate a failure with either the hardware, the
software, or the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS). These critical
malfunctions prevent the computer from operating at all or could
cause incorrect and apparent results. An example of a critical error
is microprocessor malfunction.
Messages that furnish important information on the power-on and
boot processes (such as memory status). These non-critical
malfunctions are those that cause incorrect results that may not be
readily apparent. An example of a non-critical error would be a
memory chip failure.
In general, if the POST detects a system board failure (a critical error),
the computer halts and generates a series of beeps. If failure is detected in
an area other than the system board (such as the display, keyboard, or an
adapter card) an error message is displayed on the screen and testing is
stopped. It is important to remember that the POST does not test all areas
of the computer, only those that allow it to be operational enough to run
diagnostic programs.
If your system does not successfully complete the POST, but displays a
blank screen, emits a series of beeps, or displays an error code, consult
your dealer.
General Hardware Problems
A few common hardware problems and suggested solutions are presented

Be sure to first remove the current audio device from
your system. Please follow the instruction on the installation of
audio driver.

Solution:
Correct the date and time using the DOS DATE and
TIME commands or the options in the Setup Utility. If the date and
time become incorrect after a short time, your CMOS battery may
be depleted. Contact your dealer to change the battery.
You hear irregular beeps during operation of the
Notebook and the system halts.
The problem is beyond the scope of this manual.
Contact technical support.
An unidentified message is displayed.
Reboot the computer and run the BIOS system setup.
Confirm the Setup parameters. If the same message is displayed
after booting up again, contact technical support for assistance.
The system cannot access the DVD-ROM drive.
Check that a CD is properly inserted in the drive.
Make sure that you are using the correct program for that kind of
CD. For example, the system cannot read a data CD using an
audio program.
You cannot operate the printer.
Check the printer USB cable connection. Ensure that
the printer power switch is turned on. Confirm that the printer is
on-line.
You cannot use the mouse.
Check the cable connection.
Check the mouse with another application to see if there is a
software incompatibility problem.
If possible, check the mouse with another computer to see if it
works. If it doesn’t operate on a different system, the mouse might
be broken.
The fan does not stop operating when the system
enters the suspend mode.
Before entering the suspend mode, the fan still
operates in full speed to lower down the temperature of the system.
When the system temperature reduces into normal condition then
the fan will gradually slow down into its normal speed.
75
Contacting Your Dealer
If you still have a problem after reading the preceding sections, the next
step is to contact your dealer. Your dealer can determine if the problem is
something that requires the computer to be taken to the shop. Before you
call your dealer, however, prepare the following information:
How is your computer configured? Your dealer needs to know what
peripheral devices you are using.
What messages, if any, are on the screen?
What software were you running at the time?
What have you done already to try to solve the problem? If you
have overlooked a step, your dealer may be able to solve the
problem over the phone.
