Display Problems

The display panel is blank when the system is turned on

• Make sure the computer is not in the Standby or Hibernate suspend modes.

The display is turned off to conserve energy in these modes.

The screen is difﬁcult to read

Keyboard and Mouse Problems

The built-in touch pad performs erratically

• Make sure there is no excess perspiration or liquid on your hand when using

the touch pad. Keep the surface of the touch pad clean and dry.

• Do not rest your palm or wrist on the surface of the touch pad while typing or

using the touch pad.

The built-in keyboard accepts no input

• If you are connecting an external keyboard to the system, the built-in

keyboard may not work.

• Try restarting the system.

The characters on the screen repeat while I type

• You may be holding the keys down too long while you’re typing.

• Keep the keyboard clean. Dust and dirt under the keys could cause them to stick.

• Conﬁgure the keyboard to wait longer before the auto repeat feature starts.

To adjust this feature, Go to [Start > Settings > Control Panel], and double-click

the Keyboard icon. A dialogue box shows up with the adjustable settings

for the keyboard.
