Troubleshooting

What To Do
If you are operating the system with battery power,
check that the battery pack is correctly inserted. Attach
the AC adapter to recharge the battery.
If you have the AC adapter attached, check that the
electrical outlet you are using works.
Power-saving mode has shut off the backlight. Press a
keyboard key or the Suspend button.
The built-in LCD may not be selected. Press Fn F3 once
or twice.
Screen brightness needs adjustment. Adjust the control.
The system entered Suspend mode due to low battery
power. (Check the Status bar for a half-moon icon.) Plug
in the AC adapter or replace the battery pack, and then
press the Suspend button to resume operation.
Use power-saving modes.
Fully charge and discharge the battery several times to
recondition it.
Replace the battery.
Adjust the brightness control.
Make sure the component is securely installed or
connected. Verify that the system parameter for the I/O
port configuration is set correctly in Setup.
A disk drive might be busy. Wait until the disk drive
stops and try again.
If system does not resume, it may have auto suspended
on a low battery. Attach the AC Adapter and try again.
If the system does not resume, check that Auto Play is
disabled. See "Changing the Auto Play Setting" in
Chapter 4 for details.
