You can also enable other power-saving options through System Setup. Set the timeout times in the Standby Timeout and Rest Timeout fields to the shortest times to ensure maximum power savings.

Certain software programs “hang” during operations when there is no interaction with the keyboard or peripheral devices.

Your computer may be in standby or rest mode. Tap the touchpad to resume from standby or press the power button to resume from rest.

A serial or parallel device attached to a serial or parallel port on the rear panel of the system unit does not work properly.

Make sure the attached device Is turned on. Verify that the cable is properly installed between the device and the port. Make sure that the Installed OS section in the Advanced menu in Setup is set to the Operating System you are running on your TransPort LT.

A PC Card does not work correctly.

Make sure that the PC Card is inserted left side up in the PC Card slot. Check that the card is inserted fully into the slot. If you are using a PC Card modem, check the modem cable connections. Make sure that the Installed OS section in the Advanced menu in Setup is set to the Operating System you are running on your TransPort LT. Make sure that you are using the correct driver for your PC card.

The System Setup settings are not retained when you turn off the computer.

The CMOS battery inside the computer may need to be replaced. The CMOS battery provides power to save the system BIOS information when the computer is turned off. Normally, the CMOS battery lasts for several years. Do not attempt to open the chassis and replace this battery yourself or your warranty is void. Have an authorized the manufacturer’s service center replace the CMOS battery.

If your computer’s Operating System is Windows 98 or Windows 2000, you can enable and use the infrared port. The Windows NT 4.0 Operating System does not support infrared.
