immediately turns off.

or replace the battery with a fully charged one.
Problem:

remains blank.
Solution:
Check whether an external monitor was disconnected while the computer
was in standby mode. Do not disconnect the external monitor while the
computer is in standby mode or hibernation mode. If no external monitor
is attached when the computer resumes, the computer display remains
blank and output is not displayed. This restriction does not depend on the
resolution value. Press Fn+F7 to bring up the computer display.

scheme, press Fn+F7 at least three times in three seconds, and the

Problem:
The computer does not return from standby mode, or the standby
indicator stays on and the computer does not work.
Solution:

standby or hibernation mode automatically because the battery is depleted.
Check the standby indicator.
v If the standby indicator is on, your computer is in standby mode.
Connect the ac adapter to the computer; then press Fn.

power-off state. Connect the ac adapter to the computer; then press
power button to resume operation.

stop responding and you cannot turn off the computer. In this case, you
need to reset the computer. If you have not saved your data, it may be
lost. To reset the computer, press and hold the power button for 4 seconds
or more. If the system is still not reset, remove the ac adapter and the
battery.
