Solution:
IRQs
for
the
PCI
are
all
set
as
11.
The
computer
does
not
respond
because
it
cannot
share
the
IRQ
with
other
devices.
Refer
to
the
ThinkPad
Configuration
Program.

the
USB
1.x
device
when

from
suspend
or

in
Windows
2000.
Solution:
You

Problem:
The
computer
cannot
play
a
CD,
or
the
sound
quality
of
a
CD
is
not
good.
Solution:
Be
sure
that
the
disk
meets
the
standard
for
your
country.
Usually,
a
disk
that
meets
the
local
standards
is
marked
with
a
CD
logo
(as
shown
below)
on
the
label.
If
you
use
a
disk
that
does
not
meet
these
standards,
we
cannot
guarantee
that
it
will
play,
or
that,
if
it
does
play,
the
sound
quality
will
be
good.
Problem:
The
system
shows
slow
performance.
Solution:
This
problem
may
occur
when
the
ac
adapter
is
not
attached.
To
prolong
battery
life
with
the
higher
frequency
of
Intel’s
Pentium
4/Celeron
processors,
the
ThinkPad
G40
implements
the
Dynamic
CPU
Throttling
feature,
which
reduces
CPU
frequency
dynamically:
1)
when
the
system
operates
in
battery
mode;
2)
when
the
system
increases
power
consumption;
3)
when
system
temperature
increases.
To
avoid
or
reduce
this
problem,
do
one
or
all
of
the
following:
1.
Attach
the
ac
adapter.
2.
Close
applications
not
being
used.
3.
Try
to
lower
system
temperature
by
increasing
the
fan
speed
with
the
Battery
MaxiMiser
Wizard
with
Fan
Control.
Problem:
Playback
of
DVD
is
not
smooth.
