Do not remove the battery pack while the computer is in Sleep Mode. Data is stored in RAM, so if the computer loses power it could be lost. In Hibernation Mode, data will be lost if you remove the battery pack or disconnect the AC adaptor before the save is completed.
Power-up modes The computer has three different power-up modes as follows: Shut Down Mode: The computer will shut down without saving data - in view of this you must always save your work before you turn the computer off. Hibernation Mode: Data in memory will be saved to the hard disk drive.
Chapter 6 Troubleshooting TOSHIBA have designed this computer for durability, however, should problems occur you are able to use the procedures detailed in this chapter to help determine the cause. All users should become familiar with this chapter as knowing what might go wrong can help prevent problems from occurring in the first place.
Check all cables to ensure they are correctly and firmly attached to the computer - loose cables can cause signal errors. Inspect all connecting cables for loose wires and all connectors for loose pins.
Hardware If you cannot find a software problem, you should then check the setup and configuration of your hardware. First run through the items in the preliminary checklist as described previously the.
indicator is glowing, the computer is connected to a live external power source. Hardware and system checklist This section discusses problems caused by your computer’s hardware or attached peripherals.
Problem Procedure Battery doesn’t power the computer The battery may be discharged - connect the AC adaptor to recharge the battery. Battery doesn’t charge when the AC adaptor is attached ( Battery indicator or DC IN/Battery indicator does not glow amber).
