Working with PC Cards
When you install PC Cards, you can add a multitude of functions to your notebook
computer similar to those found on add-in boards for desktop computers. There are
many PC Cards on the market, the supported PC Cards are listed below:
•Input/output, such as modem, network, video capture, and SCSI cards.
•Storage, such as hard drive and flash memory cards.
Your computer includes the following PC Card support:
•Two PC-Card slots: You can install Type I, II, or III cards in the slots.
TYPE III Cards:
Type III cards are thicker than Types I and II. If you install a Type III card in the
bottom slot, you cannot install a card in the top slot.
•CardBus hardware and software: CardBus enables the computer to use 32-bit
PC Cards. Windows 2000 supports 32-bit and 16-bit PC Cards.
•Zoomed video: Both PC Card slots and the video chip on your computer
support zoomed video. When you install a zoom video PC Card in the upper or
lower slot, data can be transferred directly from the PC Card to video and audio
systems without going through the microprocessor. Video conferencing and
real-time multimedia devices, such as video cameras, are supported by zoomed
video.
Maintaining PC Cards
To maintain your PC Cards, follow these guidelines:
•Keep cards away from excessive heat, direct sunlight, and liquids.
•Do not drop, bend, flex, or crush cards when handling.
•Keep dust, magnets, and static electricity away from PC Cards.
•When a card is not in use, carry it in its protective carrying case.
•Some PC Cards include cables that extend from the back of the cards. Be
careful not to bend or put excessive strain on these cables.

Using the Battery
Your computer uses a smart rechargeable Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery pack for power
when the AC adapter is not attached to an electrical outlet. The smart battery gives a
accurate measurement of the current battery capacity which helps extend operating
time by enabling effective power management in operating systems that take
advantage of the accurate information supplied by the battery.
Charging the Battery
Your computer’s battery starts charging automatically when you connect the power to
the computer and to an electrical outlet. If the computer is off, the battery charges faster
than if the computer’s power is on.
Approximate charging times for the Li-Ion battery are
•3 hours with the computer off.
•7 hours with the computer on.
While the battery is charging normally, the battery charge light on the computer is red.
When the battery is fully charged, the light changes to green.
When you use a new battery pack for the first time or use a battery after a long period
of storage, the initial battery life is shorter than normal. Normal battery life resumes
after a few discharge-recharge cycles.
Follow these rules for charging your battery:
•A battery normally discharges power when not used for long periods of time.
Be sure to recharge the battery every two months when it is not in use.
•Make it a practice to discharge your battery fully before recharging the battery.
This can help extend the life of the battery.
•Do not attempt to charge the battery in temperatures of under 5oC or over 35oC
All batteries eventually wear out and lose the ability to hold a charge. You may
need to replace your battery pack after a year of average usage.

Standby unlike hibernation mode does not store unsaved information on your
hard disk; it's stored only in the computer memory. If there is an interruption in
power, the information is lost. So before putting your computer on standby,
you should save your files.
Changing Devices:
Do not change PC Cards while in standby or hibernate modes.
To enter the power management window complete the following:
1. Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2. Click Power Options icon to display the Power Options Properties window.
3. Click the Power Schemes tab to display the basic power management options.

Turning off the monitor and HDDs will save a substantial battery power, therefore
when in battery only mode select the shortest time practical.
a Hibernate Mode (Power Management or Manual Method)
When hibernation is used, your computer turns off and when you power up again,
everything is restored exactly as you left it—including programs and documents
you may not have saved or closed. Everything in memory gets saved to the HDD,
and the monitor and hard disk get turned off.
If You Reinstall Windows:
You should re-establish hibernate in power options by opening Power
Options Properties window and click on the Hibernate tab then click
“Enable Hibernation”.
Frequent Interruptions:
If you experience frequent interruptions, you might also consider putting your
computer into automatic hibernation after a specified number of minutes using
the power management options.
a Standby Mode (Power Management or Manual Method)
Standby is used mainly for conserving battery power in your notebook computer. It
also gives you the benefit of getting right back to your work without waiting for the
computer to restart. Standby turns off your monitor and hard disks, placing your entire
system in a low-power state. When you return to your computer, restores your desktop
exactly as you left it. It is recommended that you do not enter standby mode with less
than 20% battery power.
5. Click OK to set your power management options and close the window.

Resolution and Colour Depth
The resolution of the LCD is the sharpness of the image it can display. Resolution is
measured by the number of pixels (individual dots) displayed on the entire screen. In
general, the more pixels the LCD can display, the better the image.
The number of colours the LCD can display is measured by how many bits the LCD
uses to represent each pixel:
•16-bit colour can support 64 K (65,536) colours.
•32-bit colour can support 16 M (16.8 million) colours.
All these video modes can be displayed on an external monitor. However, if you
