Q: What kind of external microphone can I use with my Booktop computer?
A: You will need to use a self-amplifying microphone.
Q: There are echoes coming from my speakers. What can I do?
A: Double click on the Speaker icon on the task bar. Then, under Microphone Balance, check
the Mute box.
Q: Because of a software problem, I was unable to shut the computer down from
Windows, I pressed the power button to power off the computer, but it didn't work. How
can I force a power off?
A: Make sure you press the power button for at least 4 seconds. Normally, this will force the
computer to shut off.
Q: Why can't I charge the battery of my portable computer after it was out of use for
some time?
A: After your portable computer has not been used for a long time (say, more than a month),
the battery will enter into low voltage protection mode. Under this circumstance, restoring to
normal voltage will require the battery to be slowly charged for several hours. Once the battery
has been fully charged, your computer will resume to normal operation.
Q: My computer says: "CMOS Battery Low", what should I do?
A: If your computer is without power (i.e. unplug the computer power source from the power
outlet and remove the battery pack from it) for over 45 days, you would lose the information
stored in CMOS.
Please follow the steps below to reconfigure your CMOS settings:
1. Press F2 to enter into the BIOS setup utility.
2. Select "Load Optional Defaults?". When you see the following prompt, choose <OK> and
then press <Enter>.
3. Select "Save Changes and Exit", select <OK> and press <Enter> to restart your computer.
Q: How to unplug or eject devices
A:
1. In the notification area next to your task bar, double-click the Safe Removal icon. Safe
Removal displays a list of Plug and Play devices that support safe removal and that are
currently attached to the system.
If you do not see the Safe Removal icon, your device does not support safe removal, and you
cannot unplug or eject your device using Safe Removal.
