) blinks to alert you to take Managing Power 3-5 Immediately save your data upon Battery Low. The remaining operating time depends on how you are using the computer. If you are using the audio subsystem, hard or USB flash disk, the battery might run out of charge very quickly. Always respond to Battery Low by placing your computer in Hibernation mode, turning off the computer, or connecting the AC adapter. CAUTION: If you fail to save your data when the battery completely runs out of charge, then you lose your data. Managing Power 3-6 Power Management Your computer supports ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) for power management. The power management feature allows you to reduce the power consumption for energy saving. With an ACPI-compliant operating system such as Windows XP, power supply to different computer components is controlled on an as-needed basis. This allows maximum power conservation and performance at the same time. In general, Windows power management works in this way:
What ... Power to the hard disk is turned off Power to the display is turned off The computer enters the Standby mode. The hard disk and display are turned off and the entire system consumes less power. The computer enters the Hibernation mode. (See the next subsection for more information.) When ... When the hard disk has been idle for a set period. When the display has been idle for a set period. When the entire system has been idle for a set period. When you press the Fn+F9 hot key. *
When you close the cover. *
When you press the power button. *
When the entire system has been idle for a set period. When you close the cover. *
When you press the power button. *
* Depends on your settings in Windows. For detailed information on power management, see Windows Help. Managing Power 3-7 Hibernation NOTE: When using Windows, make sure that the hibernation feature is enabled in the When I press the power button, When I press the sleep button, and When I close the lid of the Power Options Advanced Properties from the Control Panel. Hibernation is a very useful feature. People frequently open many applications when they use computers. It takes some time to get all these applications open and running, and normally they all have to be closed before the computer can be turned off. When you use the hibernation feature, you do not have to close the applications. The computer stores the state of your computer to a file on the hard disk and then shuts down. The next time you turn on your computer, you return to exactly where you left off. Managing Power 3-8 Power-Saving Tips Aside from enabling your computers power saving mode (see previous section), you can do your part to maximize the batterys operating time by following these suggestions.
Do not disable Power Management. Choose a power plan that saves power when using Windows. A power plan is a collection of hardware and system settings that control how your computer manages power.
Decrease the LCD brightness to the lowest comfortable level.
Shorten the length of time before Windows turns off the display.
Many USB devices use power just by being connected. If you use a USB mouse, you can save power by disconnecting the mouse and using the touchpad. If you use a USB flash disk, unplug it when you are not using it.
Turn off the WLAN feature if you are not using it. (See Chapter 2.)
Turn off the Bluetooth feature if you are not using it. (See Chapter 2.)
Turn off the computer when you are not using it. Managing Power 3-9 Chapter 4 CHAPTER Expanding Your Computer You can expand the capabilities of your computer by connecting other peripheral devices.

Troubleshooting 8-10 Resetting the Computer You may have to reset (reboot) your computer on some occasions when an error occurs and the program you are using hangs up. If the computer operation seems to hang up, first wait. It is possible that the computer is processing data. Periodically check the hard disk drive in-use indicator, if it flashes irregularly, the program may be accessing data and preventing you from using the keyboard. If you are sure the operation has stopped and you cannot use the restart function of the operating system, reset the computer. Reset the computer by any one of these methods:
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del.
If the above action does not work, turn off the computer. Wait for at least five seconds and turn it on again. CAUTION: Resetting will cause any unsaved data to be lost. Troubleshooting 8-11 Recovering Pre-installed Software CAUTION: All files on the primary hard disk partition (usually drive C) will be lost in the software recovery process. Make sure you have a backup of the files stored in the partition before you start the process. Your computer has a hidden and protected area in the hard disk drive where a backup of the hard disk drive in its factory state is stored. To recover the hard disk drive to its factory state:
1. Press the power button to turn on your computer. 2. Press the F10 key when the BIOS logo (MiSTATION) screen shows during the system startup. 3. Select Restore system to initial. The recovery procedure starts. NOTE: If you wish to skip the recovery procedure, select Reboot my computer.
