This chapter will try to anticipate potential problems that you may encounter in the day-to-day
use of your notebook. Included in this chapter is information that should help to solve these
problems for you. This section is organized into categories based on the hardware.
The Power System
Question:
When I turn on the notebook, nothing happens. What’s the matter?
Answer:
1. If your system is running off battery power, the batteries are
probably completely drained. Attach the AC adapter and
recharge the batteries.
2. If you are running off the adapter, check to make sure that it is
plugged into a live power source. If the power LED is on, it
indicates that the power source is good and that the adapter is
functioning properly.
3. If there is a battery in the computer, turn off the system,
remove the battery, and then turn on the computer. If there is
still no response, consult your dealer for an appraisal of the
problem.
Question:
The computer keeps beeping at me. Have I done something
wrong?
Answer:
1. The computer is most likely trying to tell you that battery
power is low. Save your work, close your applications and
connect the AC Adapter.
2. If AC power is not available, turn off the notebook and replace
the battery.
