Power

When the computer is not plugged into an AC outlet, the battery pack is
the primary power source. However, your computer has a number of
other power resources, including intelligent power supply, Real Time
Clock battery. These resources are interrelated and any one could affect
apparent power problems. This section provides check lists for AC power
and the battery. If you cannot resolve a problem after following them, the
cause could lie with another power resource. In such case, contact your
dealer.

Overheating power down

If the computer's internal temperature becomes too high, the computer
will automatically shut down.

AC power

If you have trouble turning on the computer with the AC adaptor
connected, check the DC IN indicator. Refer to Chapter 6, Power and
Power-Up Modes, for more information.
