LifeBook Q2000 Series User’s Guide
You have connected an
external keyboard or mouse
and it seems to be locking
up the system.
(continued)
Your system has crashed. Try to restart your LifeBook notebook. If that fails,
turn off the power using the power/suspend/resume
button, wait at least 10 seconds, and then power on.
If turning off power with the power/suspend/resume
button fails, the button has likely been set to standby
or hibernate. In that case, disconnect the power
cord, then remove and re-insert the battery.
Memory Problems
Your Power On screen, or
Main menu of the BIOS
setup utility information,
does not show the correct
amount of installed
memory.
You have a memory failure. Check for Power On Self Test (POST) messages.
(See Power On Self Test Messages page 53 for more
information)
USB Device Problems
You have installed a USB
device, but your LifeBook
notebook does not recog-
nize the device, or the
device does not seem to
work properly.
The USB device is not properly
installed and/or powered.
Verify the USB is properly installed by unplugging
and replugging the plug. Also, verify that sufficient
power is available to the USB device.
The USB port is not enabled in
the BIOS.

installed.

Close the application and restart your LifeBook
notebook.
Your software may not have
correct software driver active.
See your software documentation and activate the
correct driver.
You may have the wrong I/O

mentation to determine the required I/O address.
Change the settings in the BIOS setup utility. (See
BIOS Setup Utility page 25 for more information)
Your device and another device
are assigned the same I/O
address.
Check all I/O addresses located within the BIOS
setup utility and any other installed hardware or
software to make sure there are no duplications.
