Maintaining security when the battery is not fully charged
When the main battery is not fully charged (even if the
computer is operating on AC power) your display may
reappear automatically after a short time. To protect your
desktop, you must set up a screen saver with a password
before activating the password feature.
To set up a password with a screen saver, go to Windows XP
help for instructions:
1Click Start, Help and Support.
2In the Search field, type password screen saver.
3Press Enter.
4Click the Protect your files with a screen saver
password link located under the suggested topics.
Follow the steps listed in the Windows help to set up your
password-protected screen saver.
To ensure the password protection is activated after pressing
Fn + F1 (to activate instant security), wait ten seconds before
walking away from the computer.
