Precautions For Suspending - Fujitsu LifeBook B2150 Instruction Manual

Precautions for Suspending

Pay attention to the following points when using the suspend function.
When the computer is connected to a network using a LAN card or modem and when the
peripheral equipment is expanded with a PC card, you may not be able to use the suspend/
resume function. When you have expanded functions with a PC card, also check the manual
for the cards you are using.
Do not operate the SUS/RES switch when using Windows NT.
In the following cases, do not use the suspend function, but switch on/off the computer main
unit power supply with the main switch.
• When this computer is unused for a long period
When this computer will be unused longer than the effective period (about one day maximum)
for battery power for suspend mode, save all data, close Windows 98, then switch off the
main switch. If you suspend with the BIOS setup Suspend Mode set to Save to Disk, the
power goes off with the main switch still on. In this case, it does not matter if you switch off
the main switch. The next time you switch on the main switch, operation resumes.
• When installing or removing options
There are some options that can be installed without switching off the main switch. See
SECTION 2 of this manual and the manual that comes with the option product.
Critical Point
The SUS/RES switch does not work in the following cases.
• When the main switch is off
• When the battery has run out
• When the BIOS setup SUS/RES Switch is set to disabled
