Apple Duo 270C manual Computer just stopped

The computer just stopped.

nThe computer may have gone to sleep. Press any key (except Caps Lock) or the Power On key to wake it again.

nThe battery may have drained so far that the computer has put itself to sleep to protect the contents of RAM. Plug in the power adapter and then press the Power On key.

nThe computer may have “crashed” due to temporary software problems. Click the Restart button on the screen (if you see one); press the x (Command), Control, and Power On keys simultaneously; or press the power button on the back of the computer. If you use these methods, you will lose any work you have not saved.

The computer exhibits odd behavior, such as many unexplained system failures.

nA common cause of unexplained problems is multiple System Folders on your computer’s startup disk. The System Folder that the PowerBook is using to operate is marked with an icon. Use the Find command in the Finder’s File menu to locate any other System Folders, and throw them in the Trash.

nYou may have a virus on your hard disk. Obtain a virus- detection program, use it to check all your disks, and eliminate any viruses the program finds.

nYou may be using a program that’s not compatible with your computer’s system software. Check the manual that came with the program or contact the manufacturer.

nYou may have added a control panel or extension that is incompatible with other programs you use. Restart the computer with the Shift key held down until you see the message “Extensions off.” If the problem does not recur, remove any such items you recently installed.
