Fujitsu KA02066D105, T902, FP1000, BTBK410000BAAAPP manual Boot Sequence

DO NOT CARRY YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC AROUND WITH THE POWER ON OR SUBJECT IT TO SHOCKS OR VIBRATION, AS YOU RISK DAMAGING YOUR TABLET PC.

When you power on your LIFEBOOK, it will perform a Power On Self Test (POST) to check the internal parts and configuration for correct functionality. If a fault is found, your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC will emit an audio warning and/or an error message will be displayed. See “Power On Self Test Messages” on page 99. Depending on the nature of the problem, you may be able to continue by starting the operating system or by entering the BIOS setup utility and revising the settings.

After satisfactory completion of the POST, your Tablet PC will load your operating system.

NEVER TURN OFF YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC DURING THE POWER ON SELF TEST (POST) OR IT WILL CAUSE AN ERROR MESSAGE TO BE DISPLAYED WHEN YOU TURN YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC ON THE NEXT TIME. See “Power On Self Test Messages” on page 99.

Boot Sequence

The procedure for starting-up your notebook is termed the Bootup sequence and involves your notebook’s BIOS. When your notebook is first turned on, the main system memory is empty, and it needs to find instructions to start up your notebook. This information is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or restart your notebook, it goes through a boot sequence which displays a Fujitsu logo until the operating system is found. During booting, your notebook is performing a standard boot sequence including a Power On Self Test (POST). When the boot sequence is completed without a failure and without a request for the BIOS Setup Utility, the system displays the operating system’s opening screen.

The boot sequence is executed when:

•You turn on the power to your LIFEBOOK notebook.

•You restart your LIFEBOOK notebook from [Settings]->[Power] menu.

•The software initiates a system restart; for example, when you install a new application.
