IBM T410SI, T400S manual Symptom-to-FRU index

•The system status, RAM, VRAM, and setup data are stored on the hard disk.

•The system is powered off.

Note: If the computer enters the hibernation mode while it is docked to the docking station, do not undock it before resuming normal operation. If you do undock it and then try to resume normal operation, you will get an error message, and you will have to restart the system.

To cause the computer to enter hibernation mode, do any of the following:

•Press the Fn+F12 keys.

•If you have defined one of the following actions as the event that causes the system to go into hibernation mode, perform that action.

–Closing the lid.

–Pressing the power button.

–Pressing Fn+F4 keys.

Also, the computer goes into hibernation mode automatically in either of the following conditions:

•If a “hibernation time” has been set on the timer, and if the user does not do any operation with the keyboard, the TrackPoint, the hard disk drive, the parallel connector, or the diskette drive within that time.

•If the timer conditions are satisfied in suspend mode.

When the power is turned on, the computer returns from hibernation mode and resumes operation. The hibernation file in the boot record on the hard disk drive is read, and system status is restored from the hard disk drive.

Symptom-to-FRU index

This section contains following information:

•“Numeric error codes” on page 51

•“Error messages” on page 55

•“Beep symptoms” on page 56

•“No-beep symptoms” on page 57

•“LCD-related symptoms” on page 57

•“Intermittent problems” on page 58

•“Undetermined problems” on page 58

The symptom-to-FRU index in this section lists symptoms and errors and their possible causes. The most likely cause is listed first, in boldface type.

Note: Do the FRU replacement or other actions in the sequence shown in the column headed “FRU or action, in sequence.” If replacing a FRU does not solve the problem, put the original part back in the computer. Do not replace a nondefective FRU.

This index can also help you determine, during regular servicing, what FRUs are likely to need to be replaced next.

A numeric error is displayed for each error detected in POST or system operation. In the displays, n can be any number.

If no numeric code is displayed, check the narrative descriptions of symptoms. If the symptom is not described there, go to “Intermittent problems” on page 58.
