Your computer’s TFT display
Small bright dots may appear on your screen display when you turn 
on your computer. Your display contains an extremely large number 
of thin-film transistors (TFT) and is manufactured using high-
precision technology. Any small bright dots that may appear on 
your display are an intrinsic characteristic of the TFT 
manufacturing technology. Over a period of time, and depending on 
the usage of the computer, the brightness of the screen will 
deteriorate. This is also an intrinsic characteristic of the screen 
technology. When the computer is operated on battery power, the 
screen will dim and you may not be able to increase the brightness 
of the screen while on battery power.

Inserting an ExpressCard
®
Before you insert an ExpressCard
®
, refer to the documentation that 
comes with the card to see if you need to do anything before you

You may first need to remove the card slot protector before you can 
insert a card.
