If Something Goes Wrong
Power and the battery
Power and the battery
Your computer receives its power through the AC adaptor
and power cord/cable and from the real-time clock (RTC)
battery. A faulty AC adaptor or power cord/cable will not
power the computer.
Here are some typical problems and how to solve them:
The ON/OFF light does not come on when you plug
in the AC adaptor and power cord/cable.
Make sure the AC adaptor and power cord/cable are firmly
plugged into both the wall outlet and the computer.
If the ON/OFF light still does not come on, check that the
wall outlet is working properly by plugging in a lamp or other
appliance.

You may need to update your keyboard driver. Refer to the
documentation that came with the keyboard or to the

The keyboard you connected may be defective or
incompatible with the computer. Try using a different make of
keyboard.
