enabled and the Display area (resolution) set to 640 x 480
or 800 x 600, the image on the internal display panel may
appear stretched.
The Windows® XP operating system by default does not
display resolutions below 800 x 600. To display the 640 x 480
resolution, you may need to click the Settings tab in the
Display Properties window, click Advanced, click the
Adapter tab, click List all modes, and select 640 x 480.
Powering off the computer
It is a good idea to turn off your computer when you are not
using it for a while.
If you are using the computer for the first time, leave the
computer plugged into a power source (even though the
computer is off) to fully charge the main battery. When the
main battery light glows green, the battery is fully charged.
When you power down the computer, you have three options
to choose from: Turn Off (or Shut down), Hibernate and
Standby. Each option has its advantages.
❖Use the Turn Off command if you are using the
Windows® XP Home version operating system, or the
Windows® XP Professional operating system when not
connected to a domain server.
❖Use the Shut down command if you are using the
Windows® XP Professional operating system and
connected to a domain server.
❖If you have work in progress and are not connected to a
network, use the Windows® Standby or Hibernate
commands to save your system settings to memory so
that, when you turn on the computer again, you will
automatically return to where you left off.
