User's Manual

Follow the same special considerations as when traveling with the computer. In addition, these tips are
useful when traveling internationally.
z
When traveling in another country, check that the local AC voltage and the AC adapter power
cord specifications are compatible. If not, purchase a power cord that is compatible with the local
AC voltage (e.g., power rating). Do not use converter kits sold for appliances to power the
computer.
z
If you are using the modem, check if the modem and connector is compatible with the
telecommunication system of the country you are traveling in.

POST Messages
When the GoBook PRO II computer restarts, it tests its hardware components. This test is called the
Power On Self Test (POST) . If the system finds an error during this test, it displays an error message.
Some POST errors can occur before anything can be displayed on the screen. In this case, the computer
issues a series of beeps, then stops working. This type of error indicates a serious hardware problem, and
you should contact your supervisor or your organization’s help desk.
The most common POST error messages are listed next. Select the error message to view solutions you
can try.
