ThinkPad T60 Series Service and Troubleshooting Guide
– Clean or wipe your hands to remove any excess dirt or
moisture from the fingers.
– Enroll and use a different finger for authentication.
– If your hands are too dry, apply lotion to them.
→ Your computer might lock when it enters standby mode during a
communication operation. Disable the standby timer when you are
working on the network.
To turn off the computer, press and hold the power switch for 4
seconds or more.
→ Refer to the Startup menu of the BIOS Setup Utility. Make sure that
the startup sequence in the BIOS Setup Utility is set so that the
computer starts from the device you want.
Also make sure that the device from which the computer starts is
enabled. In the startup menu in the BIOS Setup Utility, make sure that
the device is included in the "Boot priority order" list. If it is included
in the "Excluded from boot order" list, it is disabled. Select the entry
for it in the list and press the x key. This moves the entry to the "Boot
priority order" list.
→ IRQs for the PCI are all set as 11. The computer does not respond
because it cannot share the IRQ with other devices. Refer to the
ThinkPad Configuration Program.
