A few seconds after you turn on your computer, a copyright message appears on your display screen. A memory test message appears next; as the test continues, memory size increases until all installed memory is tested. Normally, the only test routine visible on the screen will be the memory test. If failure is detected in an area other than the mainboard (such as the keyboard or an adapter card), an error message is displayed on the screen and testing is stopped. 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. User manual 38 — Troubleshooting and specifications General Hardware Problems A few common hardware problems and suggested solutions are presented in the table below: THE DISPLAY SCREEN IS DARK. Adjust the screen brightness. Make sure that the computer is not in suspend mode. AN INCORRECT DATE AND TIME ARE DISPLAYED. Correct the date and time using the DOS DATE and TIME commands or the options in the Setup Utility. (You can also set the date and time in Windows by double clicking the clock on the task bar or in the control panel.) If the date and time become incorrect after a short time, your CMOS battery may be depleted. Contact your dealer to change the battery. AN UNIDENTIFIED MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED. Reboot the computer and run the BIOS Setup Utility. Confirm the Setup Utility parameters. If the same message is displayed after booting up again, contact your dealer for support. Identifying Problems Follow the steps below to identify your problems: 1. Turn off the computer. 2. Disconnect any peripheral devices such as an external mouse or printer. 3. Make sure that the AC adapter is properly connected to your computer and the power source is active. 4. Leave the computer off for approximately 10 seconds, and then switch it on again. The computer should enter the boot sequence and start normally. 5. If the computer does not start normally, look for a screen message or other clues on the malfunction, and try the troubleshooting tips below. Conquering Possible Problems Flybook Identifying Problems — 39 THE COMPUTER DOES NOT START OR BOOT-UP If the power indicator is not on, the computer is without power. Make sure you have properly attached the AC adapter and power cord, or have installed a charged battery. If the computer is running on battery power, ensure that the battery charge is not low. If the battery appears to be charged, it may be faulty. If the computer is using the AC adapter, ensure that the AC outlet, airplane seat jack, or car cigarette lighter are working. If the AC outlet power is working, the AC adapter may be faulty. HARD DRIVE OR EXTERNAL BOOT-UP DEVICE IS INACCESSIBLE If the hard disk indicator is lit, BIOS may be incorrectly set. Revise the BIOS settings for the Primary Master. Security may be set to prevent starting the operating system. If you choose to boot up your system from an external device through a USB port, make sure it is on and bootable media have been inserted. THE SCREEN IS BLANK OR THE DISPLAY IS ABNORMAL The computer may be set to an external display device only. Press Fn + F1 to switch to the VM display. The power management system may automatically blank the screen to save power, and is in video time-out, standby mode, or hibernation mode. Press any key, move the pointer, or push the power button to turn on the display. The angle of the display and the brightness level is inadequate for the ambient lighting. Adjust the display angle and press Fn + F2 or Fn + F3 to adjust the brightness level. The LCD screen has a default resolution of 1024 x 600 (XVGA). If you set the resolution lower than this, the screen expands to fill the display. When the system can not expand its display to full screen on the LCD screen or on an external display device, you can right click on Windows desktop and select Properties to open the Display Properties window. Then click the Settings tab and set the resolution to an appropriate value. User manual 40 — Troubleshooting and specifications NO AUDIO OUTPUT The audio system is closed or the volume of audio system is too low. Use hot keys or Flybook Control Center to open the audio system and adjust the volume. The audio output is disabled or too low for the audio application. Open the audio output and adjust the volume. When plugging an earphone or external speaker into the earphone/line-out jack, the built-in speakers are disabled automatically. If you can not hear sound from the built-in speakers, ensure that nothing is plugged into the jack. THE KEYBOARD, TOUCHPAD OR MOUSE DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY The system may have entered Suspend to RAM mode. Push the power button to resume the system. An application may have locked out your input device. Restart your system. If the keyboard or mouse does not respond on the USB port, ensure that the devices are installed properly and that drivers are installed. CANNOT CONNECT TO A WIRELESS LAN An incorrect network name (SSID) or network key may be used. Make sure you have set the network name (SSID) and key to the same values as the access point (infrastructure connection) or the computers to be connected (Ad Hoc connection) have. The computer may be too far from other communication devices. Retry the connection after moving your computer closer to the computers to be connected with (Ad Hoc connection) or to the access point (infrastructure connection). Also, check the wave condition in the Wireless Network Connection Status window. Check if the wireless LAN module is turned on. Verify that Disable Radio is not checked in the Network setting window. Make sure you have access rights or network authentication to the network you want to connect to. Try changing channels to avoid active channel duplication. Flybook Having the VM Serviced — 41 Check the setting of the protocol, work group, shared setting, and IP address. CANNOT CHARGE BATTERY OR LOSING POWER QUICKLY Verify that the battery is properly installed and it is not too hot or too cold. Calibrate the battery. The installed battery may be faulty. Replace it with a new one. Having the VM Serviced If you are unable to solve the problem, you should have the computer serviced. Pack the computer in the original carton. Include a description of the problem and a checklist of the steps you took when trying to fix the problem. The information may be useful to the service personnel. Return the computer to the place you purchased it.
