Fixing device-related problems
2
Click the button next to Shut Down, then click OK.
Windows 98 shuts down and turns off the computer
automatically.
3 Remove the memory card.
4 Reinstall the memory card, following the instructions in
"Installing a memory module" on page 20, and make sure it is
seated properly.
5 Check for the error again.
6 If the error recurs, remove the memory card entirely and check
for the error again.
If removing the memory card eliminates the error, the memory
card may be faulty. If the error recurs without the memory card
installed, the error is not caused by the memory card.
Power and the batteries
Your computer receives its power through the AC adapter and
power cable or from the system batteries (main battery and real
time clock (RTC) battery). Power problems are interrelated. For
example, a faulty AC adapter or power cable will neither power
the computer nor recharge the batteries.
Here are some typical problems and how to solve them:
The AC power light does not come on when you plug in the AC
adapter and power cable.
Make sure the AC adapter and power cable are firmly plugged into
both a working wall outlet and the computer.
If the AC power light still does not come on, check that the wall
outlet is working properly by plugging in a lamp or other
appliance.
The AC adapter and power cable work correctly, but the battery
will not charge.
The battery doesn't charge while the computer is consuming full
power. Try turning the computer off.
