Turning The Computer On And Off - Epson ActionNote 650 User Manual

Turning the Computer On and Off

The first time you use your computer, the battery may not be
charged (NiMH batteries lose up to 20% of their charge each
week they aren't recharged), so make sure the AC adapter is
connected. Then press the power button on the back panel to
turn on the computer.
The computer beeps and then begins a series of power-on
diagnostics that check the circuit boards, memory, ports,
keyboard, and disk drives.
First you see this prompt:
Press SPACEBAR to skip memory test
Press the spacebar or let the power-on diagnostic tests
continue. Then you see this prompt on the bottom of the screen
for 1 second:
<CTRL-ALT-S> to enter System Configuration
Utility
(Ignore this prompt for now.)
You then see a prompt asking if you want to load PC card
drivers. If you do not respond to the prompt within 5 seconds,
the computer loads the drivers and continues to boot. Ignore
this prompt also. (See "Configuring PC Cards" in Chapter 2 for
more information about this prompt.)
Your computer comes with MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows
installed on the hard disk, so it starts Windows next.
