Startup Problems
When you turn on the computer, it does not seem to respond.
If you are using an external AC power, make sure that the AC adapter is
correctly and securely connected. If so, make sure that the electrical
outlet works properly.
If you are using the battery power, make sure that the battery is not
discharged.
For models with the “HDD preheat” feature:
When turning on the
computer in an extremely low temperature environment, the computer
will heat up the hard disk before starting up. The Hard Disk (
)
indicator glows red to indicate the heater is on. Wait till the heating is
finished. However, if external AC power is not available and the
remaining battery power is too low for the heating to complete, the
computer may not start up. In case the computer fails to start up, turn
off the computer and leave it in room temperature for about an hour
before trying to turn it on again.
WLAN Problems
I cannot use the WLAN feature.
Make sure that the WLAN feature is turned on.
Transmission quality is poor.
Your computer may be in an out-of-range situation. Move your
computer closer to the Access Point or another WLAN device it is
associated with.
Check if there is high interference around the environment and solve the
problem as described next.
Radio interference exists.
Move your computer away from the device causing the radio
interference such as microwave oven and large metal objects.
Plug your computer into an outlet on a different branch circuit from that
used by the affecting device.
Consult your dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
