Operation This section gives an overview of the notebook’s operation. Turning the Notebook On and Off You can start and stop your notebook using its power button. However, at certain times you might want to use other methods to start or stop the notebook—depending on power considerations, types of active connections, and start-up time.
Checking the Status of the Notebook The main status lights on the front of the notebook report power status, battery status, and hard disk activity. Table 1-4. Main Status Lights (front of notebook) Meaning Power status On: notebook is on (even if the display is off). Blinking: notebook is in Standby mode.
Using Fn Hot Keys The combination of the Fn key plus another key creates a hot key—a shortcut key sequence—for various system controls. To use a hot key, press and hold Fn, press the appropriate second key, then release both keys. Table 1-6.
Resetting the Notebook Occasionally, Windows or the notebook might stop responding, so that you cannot turn the notebook off. If this happens, try the following in the order listed. Press the power button to restart. • If possible, shut down Windows: Windows XP: press CTRL+ALT+DEL, and then click Shut Down, Restart.

Troubleshooting and Diagnostics This chapter includes troubleshooting and diagnostic information for testing the functionality of the notebook, and for identifying faulty components: • ASP support information • Troubleshooting information Checking for customer abuse (page 3-3). Troubleshooting the problem (page 3-3). Verifying the repair (page 3-4).
Troubleshooting The suggestions in this section can help isolate and repair the cause of a problem. To ensure quality repair, follow the basic troubleshooting steps shown below. Check the customer’s description of the problem and any supporting information. Check for customer abuse. Try to duplicate the customer’s problem.
Checking for Customer Abuse Some notebooks might appear to have been damaged by customer abuse. Use these guidelines to help determine if this is the case: • If the shipping box is seriously damaged, customer abuse cannot be declared. • If the damage could have a cause other than customer abuse, customer abuse cannot be declared.
Swapping modules that might be defective with others known to be good is generally an ideal way to find the module responsible for the problem. A failure symptom is rarely caused by more than one module, so you will not usually need to replace more than one to correct a particular failure. After you replace a module, the notebook will normally be in a confused state and lock up when you apply power.
If you cannot isolate the cause of a problem using the above diagnostic tools, use the suggestions in the following table to help find the problem. Table 3-3. Troubleshooting Suggestions Call Center: Repair Center: Repair Center: Symptom Suggestions Likely Causes Comments To help determine likely causes of a problem, determine which replaceable modules are involved in the system function and what roles they play: see the figure on page 1-27 and the table on page 1-28.
