Possible Cause
The Suspend/Resume button
is disabled from the Advanced
submenu of the Power menu
of the setup utility.
You did not hold the button
in long enough.
There may be a conflict with
the application software.
The boot sequence settings of
the setup utility are not
compatible with your
configuration.
You have a secured system
requiring a password to load
your operating system.
Power On Self Test (POST) has
detected a problem.
The system may be password-
protected.
BIOS setup changes were not
saved when you exited the
BIOS setup utility, returning it
to previous settings.
The BIOS CMOS back-up
battery has failed.
The optional Port Replicator is
attached, an external monitor
is plugged in, and the note-
book is set for an external
monitor only.
The angle of the display and
the brightness settings are not
adequate for your lighting
conditions.
Possible Solutions
Enable the button from the setup utility.
Hold the button longer. This may need to be a few
seconds if your application is preventing the CPU
from checking for button pushes.
Close all applications and try the button again.
Set the operating source by pressing the [F2] key
while the Fujitsu logo is on screen and enter the
setup utility and adjust the source settings from the
Boot menu. See "BIOS Setup Utility" on page 29.
Make sure you have the right password. Enter the
setup utility and verify the Security settings and
modify them as accordingly. See "BIOS Setup
Utility" on page 29.
See the Power On Self Test (POST) messages to
determine the meaning of the problem. Not all
messages are errors; some are simply status indica-
tors. See "Power On Self Test Messages" on page 61.
Check the status indicator panel to verify that the
Security icon is blinking. If it is blinking, enter your
password.
Make sure you select Save Changes And Exit when
exiting the BIOS setup utility.
Contact your support representative for repairs.
This is not a user serviceable part but has a normal
life of 3 to 5 years.
Pressing [F10] while holding down the [Fn] key
allows you to change your selection of where to
send your display video. Each time you press the
combination of keys you will step to the next
choice. The choices, in order are: built-in display
only, external monitor only, both built-in display
and external monitor.
Move the display and the brightness control until
you have adequate visibility.
