Hint
Starting Out with Your OmniBook
Starting and Stopping the OmniBook
In addition, Advanced Power Management (APM) provides several automatic
power-saving features that affect the power state. You can adjust settings in the
System Configuration Utility to control features such as:
If the OmniBook is running on battery power and there's no activity for a short
period of time, it automatically stops by changing to the Suspend state.
To reset and restart the OmniBook
If Windows or the OmniBook gets stuck and stops responding—and you can't
recover in Windows—you can reset the OmniBook and restart Windows.
1. If possible, shut down Windows.
2. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to reboot the OmniBook.
–or–
Insert a ball-point pen tip or straightened paper clip into the small hole below
the charging light and press the reset button inside the hole. Resetting is more
complete than rebooting because it resets even locked-up components.
3. Optional (available in Windows for Workgroups): When the OmniBook
displays a list of configurations, you may press SPACEBAR to stop the 5-second
time-out. You may then press a number key and ENTER to select a particular
configuration. If you do nothing, the OmniBook uses its default configuration.
If these actions have no effect, remove the battery and ac adapter and press the
reset button. Then install the battery or plug in the ac adapter and try pressing the
reset button again.
Rebooting from a floppy disk. If you want to reboot from a boot disk in the floppy
drive, put the disk in the floppy drive before you restart the OmniBook. For
example, you can reboot from the Support Utility disk, then use the commands on
this disk to check your hard disk.
