If Something Goes Wrong
Resolving a hardware conflict
The display mode is set to Simultaneous and the external
display device does not work.

resolutions of 800 x 600 or higher. Devices that do not
support this resolution will only work in Internal/External
mode, and not simultaneous mode.
Small bright dots appear on your TFT display when you
turn on your computer.
Your display contains an extremely large number of thin-film
transistors (TFT) and is manufactured using high-precision
technology. The small bright dots that appear on your display
are an intrinsic characteristic of the TFT manufacturing
technology.
NOTE
Disk drive problems
Problems with the hard disk or with a diskette drive usually
show up as an inability to access the disk or as sector errors.
Sometimes a disk problem may cause one or more files to
appear to have garbage in them. Typical disk problems are:
You are having trouble accessing a disk, or one or more
files appear to be missing.
Make sure you are identifying the drive by its correct name
(A: or C:).
Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the
computer, the brightness of the LCD screen will deteriorate.
This is an intrinsic characteristic of LCD technology.
The screen may be dimmer when the computer is operated on
battery power. You may not be able to increase the brightness
of the screen until you plug the computer into AC power again
.
