with the application

system requiring a
password to load your
operating system.
Internal hard drive was
not detected.
The system may be
password-protected.
Power On Self Test
(POST) has detected a
problem.
Enable the button from the setup utility.
Hold the button longer. This may need to be a
few seconds if your application is preventing
the CPU from checking for button pushes.
Close all applications and try the button again.
Set the operating source by pressing the
[ESC] key while the Fujitsu logo is on screen
or use the [F2] key and enter the setup utility
and adjust the source settings from the Boot
menu.
Make sure you have the right password. Enter
the setup utility and verify the Security settings
and modify them accordingly.
Use the BIOS setup utility or Primary Master
submenu, located within the Main menu, to try
to auto detect the internal hard drive.
Check the status indicator panel to verify that
the Security icon is blinking. If it is blinking,
enter your password.
See the POST messages to determine the
meaning and severity of the problem. Not all
messages are errors; some are status
indicators.
