Shutdown and Startup Problems

The Suspend/
Resume/Power On
button does not
work.

The Suspend/Resume/Power On
button is disabled from the
Advanced submenu of the Power
menu of the setup utility.

Enable the button from the setup utility.

You did not hold the button
in long enough.

Hold the button longer. This may need to be a few
seconds if your application is preventing the CPU from
checking for button pushes.

There may be a conflict with the
application software.

Close all applications and try the button again.

The system powers
up, and displays
power on informa-
tion, but fails to load
the operating system.

The boot sequence settings of the

configuration.

Set the operating source by pressing the [ESC] key while
the Fujitsu logo is on screen or use the [F2] key and
enter the setup utility and adjust the source settings
from the Boot menu.
