Power Problems
I can boot up the computer but cannot run my software as the screen freezes.
This may occur infrequently when running the WinBook from the battery and when
the battery is very low. Connect the AC adapter and recharge the battery. Remember
that you can still use the WinBook while the battery is charging.

that you can still use the WinBook while the battery is charging.
Nothing happens when I turn on the power switch.
If running from the power adapter, check that the adapter is correctly plugged into
both the AC outlet and the WinBook, and that there is power in the power outlet. The
power LED on the power adapter should be on. When running on the battery, check
that the battery is correctly installed. Check also that the battery is not totally
discharged. If it is, recharge it by connecting the power adapter to the system.

Boot Up Problems
The power is reaching my WinBook but the system "hangs" before it is booted up.
Boot up problems are usually caused by an incorrect configuration or statement in the
CONFIG.SYS file (see your DOS user’s manual). To test whether this is the case, try
booting up from a floppy diskette inserted in the A: drive (this diskette must be a
bootable system diskette). If this works, edit the CONFIG.SYS file on the hard disk
drive and then try booting from the hard disk drive again.

Display Problems
I can see nothing on the LCD display even though my system appears to have booted
up correctly.

Adjust the LCD Brightness and Control. Adjust the position of the screen so you are
looking directly into it at right angles. Select a different location for the system away
from bright light shining directly into the LCD.

I connected an external monitor but the display still only appears on the LCD.
Check the Set Display Type item in the Advanced CMOS SETUP in the BIOS

Have you plugged in the power lead from the monitor? Check that the monitor is
analog VGA compatible model. Digital monitors such as standard monochrome, CGA
or EGA models will not work with the external video outlet on the WinBook.
