Built-in Camera

❑ You have not used the battery pack for a long period of time.
When should I replace the battery pack?
If the battery pack quickly runs out of power after being fully charged, it may be reaching the end of its life and should be
replaced.
Should I be concerned that the installed battery pack is warm?
No, it is normal for the battery pack to be warm while it is powering your computer.
Can my computer enter Hibernate mode while running on battery power?
Your computer can enter Hibernate mode while running on battery power, but some software programs and peripheral
devices prevent the system from entering Hibernate mode. If you are using a program that prevents the system from entering
Hibernate mode, save your data frequently to avoid losing data. See Using Hibernate Mode
how you can manually activate Hibernate mode.
Built-in Camera
Why does the viewfinder show no images or poor-quality images?
❑ The built-in camera cannot be shared by more than one software application. Exit the current application before launching
another.
❑ The viewfinder may show some noise, for example horizontal streaks, when you are viewing a rapid-moving object. This
is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
❑ If the problem persists, restart your computer.
