When your LifeBook notebook is first turned on, the main system memory is empty, and it needs to find instructions to start up your notebook. This information is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or restart your notebook, it goes through a boot sequence which displays a Fujitsu logo until your operating system is loaded. During booting, your notebook is performing a standard boot sequence including a Power On Self Test (POST). If the sequence is completed without a failure and without a request for the BIOS Setup Utility, the system displays the operating system’s opening screen.The boot sequence is executed when:■You turn on the power to your LifeBook notebook.■You restart your notebook from the WindowsShut Down dialog box.■The software initiates a system restart. Example:When you install a new application.■You reset the system by pressing [CTRL+ALT+DEL]. BIOS SETUP UTILITYThe BIOS Setup Utility is a program that sets up the operating environment for your LifeBook notebook.

32LifeBook S7000 NotebookPower ManagementYour Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features are automatic and need no user intervention, such as those for the internal modem. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your oper-ating conditions, such as those for the display bright-ness. Internal power management for your notebook may be controlled from settings made in your operating system, pre-bundled power management application, or from settings made in BIOS setup utility.Besides the options available for conserving battery power, there are also some things that you can do to prevent your battery from running down as quickly.For example, you can create an appropriate power saving profile, put your notebook into Suspend mode when itis not performing an operation, and you can limit the use of high power devices. As with all mobile, battery powered computers, there is a trade-off betweenperformance and power savings.POWER/SUSPEND/RESUME BUTTONWhen your LifeBook notebook is active, the Power/Suspend/Resume button can be used to manually put your notebook into Suspend mode. Push the Power/Suspend/Resume button when your notebook is active, but not actively accessing anything, and immediately release the button. You will hear two short beeps and your system will enter Suspend mode. (See figure 2-4 on page 6 for location)If your LifeBook is suspended, pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume button returns your notebook to active operation. You can tell whether the system is Suspended by looking at the Power indicator. (See figure 2-4 on page 6) If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your notebook is fully operational. If the indicator is visible and flashing, your notebook is in Suspend mode. If the indicator is not visible, the power is off or your notebook is in Hibernation mode. (See Hibernation Feature)SUSPEND MODESuspend or Standby mode in Windows saves the contents of your LifeBook notebook’s system memory during periods of inactivity by maintaining power to critical parts. This mode will turn off the CPU, the display, the hard drive, and all of the other internal components except those necessary to maintain system memory and allow for restarting. Your notebook can be put in Suspend mode by:■Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume button when your system is turned on.■Selecting Standby from the Windows Shut Down menu.■Timing out from lack of activity.■Allowing the battery to reach the Dead BatteryWarning condition.Your notebook’s system memory typically stores the file on which you are working, open application informa-tion, and any other data required to support operations in progress. When you resume operation from Suspend mode, your notebook will return to the point where it left off. You must use the Power/Suspend/Resume button to resume operation, and there must be an adequate power source available, or your notebook will not resume.■If you are running your LifeBook note-book on battery power, be aware that the battery continues to discharge while your notebook is in Suspend mode, though not as fast as when fully opera-tional. ■Disabling the Power/Suspend/Resume button prevents it from being used to put your LifeBook notebook in Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode. The resume function of the button can-not be disabled.■The Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode should not be used with cer-tain PC Cards. Check your PC Card doc-umentation for more information. When PC Cards or external devices are in use, Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode cannot return to the exact state prior to suspen-sion, because all of the peripheral devices will be re-initialized when the system restarts.■If your LifeBook notebook is actively accessing information when you enter the Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode, changes to open files are not lost. The files are left open and memory is kept active during Suspend mode or the memory is transferred to the internal hard drive during Hiberna-tion mode.The main advantage of using the Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) function is that power is not required to maintain your data. This is particularly important if you will be leaving your LifeBook notebook in a suspended state for a prolonged period of time. The drawback of using Hibernation mode is that it lengthens the power down and power up sequences and resets peripheral devices.S7020.book Page 32 Friday, May 13, 2005 3:49 PM
33Getting StartedHIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) FEATUREThe Hibernation feature saves the contents of yourLifeBook notebook’s system memory to the hard drive as a part of the Suspend/Resume mode. You can enable or disable this feature. Enable or Disable the Hibernation FeatureThe default settings is not enabled. To enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these easy steps:1. From the Start menu, select Settings, and then select Control Panel.2. From the Control Panel select Power Options.3. Select the Hibernation tab. Select the box to enable or disable this feature.4. Click the Apply button.Using the Hibernation Feature1. From the Start menu, select Settings, and then select Control Panel.2. From the Control Panel select Power Options.3. Select the Advanced tab. Select Hibernate from the pull down menu for Power buttons.DISPLAY TIMEOUT The Video Timeout is one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the display if there is no keyboard or pointer activity for the user selected timeout period. Any keyboard or pointer activity will cause the display to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Power/Suspend/Resume button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows and BIOS setup utility. (See BIOS Setup Utility on page 29 for more information)HARD DISK TIMEOUTThe Hard Disk Timeout is another one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the hard drive if there is no hard drive activity for the user selected timeout period. Any attempt to access the hard drive will cause it to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Power/Suspend/Resume button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows and BIOS setup utility. (See BIOS Setup Utility on page 29 for more information)WINDOWS POWER MANAGEMENT Power ManagementThe Power Management icon located in the Windows Control Panel allows you to configure some power management settings. For example, you can use Power Management to set the timeout values for turning off the display and hard disks whether you are running the notebook on battery power or one of the adapters. The settings may also be changed in the BIOS. (See BIOS Setup Utility on page 29 for more information)RESTARTING THE SYSTEMIf your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure. 1. Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down.2. Select the Restart option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box.3. Click OK to restart your notebook. Your notebook will shut down and then reboot.POWER OFFBefore turning off the power, check that the Hard Drive, optical drive, PC Card, and Floppy Disk indicators are all Off. (See figure 2-4 on page 6). If you power-off while accessing a disk or PC Card there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that the notebook shuts down without error, use the Windows shutdown procedure.Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your notebook to complete its operations and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:1. Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down or Tur n Of f Computer.2. Select the Shut Down option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box.3. Click OK to shut down your notebook.If you are going to store your notebook for a month or more see Care and Maintenance Section. Turning off your notebook without exiting Windows, or turning it on within 10 seconds of being shut off may cause an error when you start the next time. Be sure to close all files, exit all applications, and shut down your operating system prior to turning off the power. If files are open when you turn the power off, you will lose any changes that have not been saved, and may cause disk errors.S7020.book Page 33 Friday, May 13, 2005 3:49 PM
