The screen

The screen looks blurred or out of focus.

mThe viewing angle may not be optimal. Tilt the display on its hinge until the screen looks better.

The screen is too dark.

mWhen you first turn on your computer, it may take several minutes for the screen brightness to “warm up,” especially if you’ve chosen a high setting.

mThe screen brightness or contrast may not be optimal for the surrounding lighting. Adjust the brightness or contrast setting.

mThe screen dims automatically when the battery starts to run low. You may need to recharge or replace the battery before you can turn up the brightness.

There are ghost images or black dots on the screen.

mWhen the computer is left on for many hours, temporary defects may appear on the screen. Put the computer to sleep. The longer the computer was left on, the longer it will take for the images to fade, but they will eventually disappear.

The pointer moves too fast/too slowly.

mYou need to adjust the pointer’s tracking speed. Open the Mouse control panel and choose a more comfortable setting.

The pointer won’t move at all.

mA software problem may have caused the computer to “freeze.” Restart the computer by using a paper clip or similar object to press the reset button on the computer’s back panel. You will lose any work you have not saved.

The pointer has disappeared.

mProcessor cycling may cause the pointer (expecially the I- beam) to disappear temporarily. Roll the trackball or mouse slowly until you locate the pointer.
