Troubleshooting

8 - 2 Basic Hints and Tips

Basic Hints and Tips

Many of the following may seem obvious but they are often the solution to a problem when your computer ap-

pears not to be working.

• Power - Is the computer actually plugged into a working electrical outlet? If plugged into a power strip,

make sure it is actually working. Check the LED Power Indicators (see “LED Indicators” on page 1 - 6)

to see the computer’s power status.

• Connections - Check all the cables to make sure that there are no loose connections anywhere.

• Power Savings - Make sure that the system is not in Hibernate or Stand by mode by pressing the keys con-

figured in your Power Management/Power Options (see “Configuring the Power Button” on page 3 - 8),

the Fn + F4 key combination, or power button to wake-up the system.

• Brightness - Check the brightness of the screen by pressing the Fn + F8 and F9 keys to adjust the bright-

ness (see Table 1 - 4, on page 1 - 8).

• Display Choice - Press Fn + F7 to make sure the system is not set to “external only” display (see Table 1 -

4, on page 1 - 8).

• Boot Drive - Make sure there are no floppy disks in any connected drive when you start up your machine

(this is a common cause of the message “Invalid system disk - Replace the disk, and then press any key” /

“Remove disks or other media. Press any key to restart”).
