Possible Solutions
Check the power management and/or setup utility

the brightness the more power your display uses.

panel will flash when the battery is outside its
operating range.
Replace with another AC Adapter to see if the
problem persists. Replace any defective AC

seconds if your application is preventing the CPU
from checking for button pushes.
Close all applications and try the button again.
Set the operating source by pressing the [F2] key
while the Fujitsu logo is on screen, entering the
setup utility and adjusting the source settings from
the Boot menu. See "BIOS Setup Utility" on page 34.
Make sure you have the right password. Enter the
setup utility and verify the Security settings and
modify them as accordingly. See "BIOS Setup
Utility" on page 34.
See the Power On Self Test (POST) messages to
determine the meaning and severity of the problem.
Not all messages are errors; some are simply status
indicators. See "Power On Self Test Messages" on
page 61.
Check the status indicator panel to verify that the
Security icon is blinking. If it is blinking, enter your
password.
