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.

WARNING....

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.

* 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.

Power Saving Modes

This section contains information on the notebook's power system, including the AC Adapter, the battery system, recharging the battery, and tips for conserving battery power.

The power system is comprised of two parts, the AC Adapter and the battery system. The AC Adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the computer.

The Battery Power System

Before using the computer on battery power for the first time, check the battery status icon on the Windows Toolbar to make sure the battery is fully charged.

See Battery Status later in this section for a description and explanation of the Windows Battery icon.

Charging the battery takes about 2.5 hours to charge when the system is in off state. If possible, always charge the battery completely.

NOTE....

If you use the battery so frequently that it

exceed more than 20 times by fully discharging/charging in a single month alone, we recommend you to perform the "Battery Calibration" process every 3 months to maintain the battery life.

Please refer to the topic on “Battery Calibration” describing how to calibrate your system battery discussed on the latter part of this chapter.

If you discover the battery life is getting shorter, please perform the "Battery Calibration" process immediately.

Removing the Battery Pack

To remove the battery pack from its compartment, please refer to Chapter 3, Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack.

Preparing the Battery Pack for Use (Battery Calibration)

Before using the battery pack for the first time, battery pack should be calibrated in order to get accurate reporting of remaining battery life status..

To calibrate the battery pack follows the instructions below:

1. Insert the battery into the battery compartment and turn on the notebook. If the battery is completely without power go to the next step. Otherwise, let the battery run down until the battery low-low warning beeps are heard. The system will automatically enter Suspend mode.
2. Turn the notebook off. Connect the AC adapter and let the battery fully recharge. When the battery charge indicator turns off, the battery is fully charged.
3. Turn On the notebook, let the battery run down until the battery is in low-low state and you hear a warning beeps. The system will automatically enter the Suspend mode. You can now connect the AC adapter.
4. The battery pack is now calibrated properly.

In general, using the battery until the low-low battery-warning indicator appears and fully recharges the battery each time (full discharge/charge cycle) will ensure the accurate reporting of the battery gauge status.

To charge the battery, while the battery pack is in the notebook, plug the AC adapter into the notebook and an electrical outlet.

The charging time is approximately 2.5 hours when the notebook is turned off and approximately 3.5 hours when the notebook is turned on.

When the battery is fully charged, the battery charge indicator becomes off.

NOTE....

If system runs at heavy loading or in a

high temperature environment, the battery may not be fully charged. You need to continue to charge it with the AC adapter plugged in until the charging LED turns off.

Battery Status

Windows Vista has an applet in the Control Panel that will display an icon in the Windows taskbar indicating when the notebook is running on battery power or is attached to the AC adapter.

This applet also displays a meter that indicates how much charge is remaining in the battery.

Battery Low Warning

When the pack initially reaches the "Battery Low" state approximately 7 \~ 10 minutes of the usable battery life is left.

You will hear an audible beep signal every 15 seconds alerting you to the “Battery Low” status. When the battery power reaches the “Battery Low Low” status the beeping sound will accelerate.

Your battery now has 1 \~ 2 minutes of battery charge remaining. You must save your data or connect AC power immediately; otherwise, you may lose your data.

Sound Meaning
Continuous beeping every 5 seconds	Battery Low: Indicates that there is 7 to 10 minutes charge remaining.
Beeping accelerates	Battery Low Low: Indicates that there is 1 to 2 minutes of battery charge remaining. Save your work and turn off the notebook, or connect the AC adapter.

When there is only one minute of battery charge remaining, the notebook will suspend to the HDD and power off. You should connect AC power and resume to save your work.

If the notebook is left without a power source for long period of time, this battery will be exhausted and system information will be lost.

WARNING....

Danger of explosion if battery is

incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.

Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never remove the battery pack while the power is on as this may result in data loss when the system loses power.

Resetting the System

After installing a software application package, you may be prompted to reset the system to load the changed operating environment.

To reset the system, or “reboot,” press the [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Delete] keys simultaneously. This is known as “warm boot.” This key combination acts as “software” reset switch when you encounter hardware or software problems, which lock up the notebook.

If this key combination does not shut down the notebook, you can reset the notebook by using the notebook's power button. Should the notebook lock up for some reason, pressing this button powers the notebook off.

Running BIOS Setup

The Setup Utility is a hardware configuration program built into your computer's BIOS (Basic Input/Output System). It runs and maintains a variety of hardware functions. It is menu-driven software, which allows you to easily configure and change the settings.

The BIOS contains manufacture's default settings for the computer's standard operations. However, there are occasions when you may be required to modify the default settings in the BIOS.

The BIOS allows you to set up passwords to limit access to users. This is an important feature because a great deal of vital information is carried within the computer nowadays. Unauthorized access can be prevented. Later in this chapter, you will learn how to use this security feature.

Entering the BIOS Setup Screen

First turn on the power. When the BIOS performs the POST (Power-On Self Test), press F2 key quickly to activate the BIOS Setup Utility.

Leaving the BIOS Setup Screen

When you have finished modifying the BIOS settings, exit the BIOS. It takes a few seconds to record changes in the CMOS.

Troubleshooting

Your computer has been fully tested and complies with the system specifications before shipping. However, incorrect operations and/or mishandling may cause problems.

This chapter provides a reference for identifying and correcting common hardware and software problems that you may encounter.

When you encounter a problem, you should first try to go through the recommendations in this chapter. Instead of returning the computer and waiting for repair, you may easily solve the problems by considering the following scenarios and possible solutions. If the error continues, contact your reseller for service information.

Before taking further actions, consider the following suggestions:

* Check to see if the problem persists when all the external devices are removed.
* Check to see that the green light indicator on the AC adapter is lit.
* Check to see the power cord is properly plugged to the wall outlet and to the computer.
* Check to see the power indicator of the computer is on.
* Check to see if your keyboard is operational by pressing and holding any key.
* Check for any incorrect or loose cable connections. Make sure the latches on the connectors latch securely on to the receptor end.
* Be sure you have not performed an incorrect setting on the hardware devices in the BIOS Setup utility. A faulty setting may cause the system to misbehave. If you are not sure of the changes you made, try to restore all the settings to factory defaults.

* Be sure all the device drivers are installed properly. For example, without the audio driver properly installed, the speakers and microphone will not work.
If external devices such as USB camera, scanner, printer do not function correctly when connected to the system, it is usually the device's own problem. Consult the device's manufacturer first.
* Some software programs, which have not gone through rigorous coding and testing, may cause problems during your routine use. Consult the software vendor for problem solving.
Legacy peripheral are not plug-and-play capable. You need to restart the system with these devices powered up and connected first.
* Be sure to go to BIOS SETUP and load DEFAULT SETTING after BIOS re-flash.
* Be sure the Quick Key Lockout Switch on the bottom of the computer is not engaged; otherwise the quick keys will not work.

Audio Problems

No speaker output

* Software volume control is turned down in Microsoft Sound System or is muted. Double-click the speaker icon on the lower right corner of the taskbar to see if the speaker has been muted or turned down all the way.
Most audio problems are software-related. If your computer worked before, chances are software may have been set incorrectly.
Go to [Start > Settings > Control Panel] and double-click the Sounds and Audio Devices icon. In the Audio page, make sure that the audio codec mentioned in the spec is the default playback device.

Sound cannot be recorded

* You will need to plug-in an external microphone to the microphone connector to record sound.
Double-click the speaker icon on the lower right corner of the taskbar to see if the microphone has been muted.

Click Options and select Properties.
Select Recording and click the OK button.
After Click OK button, the recording volume control panel will appear.

Go to [Start > Settings > Control Panel] and double-click the Multimedia icon (or Sounds and Audio Devices icon). In the Volume or Audio page, make sure that the audio codec mentioned in the spec is the default recording device.

Hard Disk Problems

The hard disk drive does not work or is not recognizable

If you had just performed a hard disk upgrade, make sure the hard drive connector is not loose and the hard disk drive is also correctly seated. Remove it and reinsert it firmly, and restart your PC.
The new HDD may need to be partitioned and reformatted. O/S and drivers will need to be re-installed as well.
* Check the hard disk indicator LED. When you access a file, the LED lamp should light up momentarily.
The new HDD may be defective or is not compatible.
If your computer has been subjected to static electricity or physical shock, you may have damaged the disk drive.

The hard drive is making abnormal whining noises

* You should back up your files as soon as possible.
Make sure the source of noise is indeed from the hard drive and not the fan or other devices.

The hard disk drive has reached its capacity

Run Disk Cleanup utility in Windows. [Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup] The system will prompt you for what to do.
Archive files or programs that you had no longer used by moving them to an alternative storage medium (floppy disk, optical record-able disk, etc.) or uninstall programs that no longer use.

* Many browsers store files in the hard drive as a cache to speed up the performance. Check the program's Online Help for instructions on decreasing the cache size or on removing temporary Internet files.
Empty the Recycle Bin to create more disk space. When you delete files, Windows saves them to the Recycle Bin.

The hard disk takes longer to read a file

If you have been using the drive for a period, the files may be fragmented. Go to [Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter] to perform a disk defragmentation. This operation may take a while.
* Interrupt requests or problems with other hardware devices may have occupied the CPU and therefore slows down the system performance.

The files are corrupted

Run the Error-checking utility in Windows to check the HDD. Double-click My Computer. Right-click C: and select Properties. Click Check Now in Error-checking in Tools.

Display Problems

The display panel is blank when the system is turned on

Make sure the computer is not in the Standby or Hibernate suspend modes. The display is turned off to conserve energy in these modes.

Do not rest your palm or wrist on the surface of the touchpad while typing or using the touch pad.

The built-in keyboard accepts no input

Please try to make sure the system doesn't hang up and is still working.

The characters on the screen repeat while I type

* You may be holding the keys down too long while you're typing.
* Keep the keyboard clean. Dust and dirt under the keys could cause them to stick.
Configure the keyboard to wait longer before the auto repeat feature starts. To adjust this feature, Go to [Start > Settings > Control Panel], and double-click the Keyboard icon. A dialogue box shows up with the adjustable settings for the keyboard.

CMOS Battery Problem

A message "CMOS Checksum Failure" displays during the booting process or the time (clock) resets when booting

* Try to reboot the system.
If the message "CMOS Checksum Failure" appears during the booting procedure even after rebooting, it may indicate failure of the CMOS battery. If so, you need to replace the battery. This battery normally lasts two to five years. The battery is of type CR2032 (3V). Send the battery to the dealer for replacement.

Memory Problems

The POST does not show an increased memory capacity when you have already installed additional memory

Certain brands of memory module may not be compatible with your system. You should ask your vendor for a list of compatible DIMM.
The memory module may be defective.

The O/S issues an insufficient memory error message during operation
