more see Care and Maintenance Section.
Save-to-Disk mode requires allocating a
significant amount of hard drive capacity
for saving all system memory, which
reduces your usable disk space. When you
purchased your LifeBook it had space
allocated for the memory installed. If you
upgrade the original system by adding a
memory upgrade module without
changing the size of your Save-to-Disk
allocation you will get an error message
when you try to activate Save-to-Disk
mode.You can download the Save-to-Disk
File Allocation information from our Web
site at www.us.fujitsu.com/computers. If
you need help, contact your support
representative for recommendations.
Turning off your LifeBook notebook
without exiting Windows or turning on
your notebook within 10 seconds of the
notebook being shut off may cause an
error when you start the next time.
Never turn off your LifeBook notebook
while an application is running. Close all
files, exit all applications, and shut down
your operating system prior to turning off
the power with the power switch. If files
are open when you turn the power off,
you will lose any changes that have not
been saved, and may cause disk errors.
