Problem
Shutdown and Startup Problems
The Suspend/
Resume button
does not work.
The system
powers up, and
displays power on
information, but
fails to load the
operating system.
An error message
is displayed on the
screen during the
notebook (boot)
sequence.
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 confi guration.
You have a secured
system requiring a
password to load your
operating system.
Internal hard drive was
not detected.
Power On Self Test
(POST) has detected a
problem.
Troubleshooting
Possible Solution
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
[ESC] key while the Fujitsu logo is on screen
or use the [F2] key and enter the setup utility
and adjust the source settings from the Boot
menu.
Make sure you have the right password. Enter
the setup utility and verify the Security
settings and modify them as accordingly.
Use the BIOS setup utility or Primary Master
submenu, located within the Main menu, to
try to auto detect the internal hard drive.
See the Power On Self Test (POST)
messages to determine the meaning and
severity of the problem.
Not all messages are errors; some are simply
status indicators.
