6Turning On the Power
Cautions
• The Power lamp lights up in orange in the standby mode.
• Before turning on the PC power, confirm that the display is connected to the PC unit. If the PC power
is turned on with the display disconnected, the system fails to recognize the display adapter and
the screen may not be displayed normally. In this case, analog display users should connect the
display, terminate the OS, turn off the PC and turn on the PC again.
• When you use a digital display that takes power directly from a wall outlet, make sure that it is turned
on before turning on the PC. The digital display does not work if it is turned on after the PC unit.
Turn off the PC unit once and turn on the display and turn on the PC unit.
• When the power cable of the display is connected to the PC, the display power is turned on or off
automatically when the PC power is turned on or off. Therefore, once the power switch on the display
is pressed, subsequent operation is not necessary.
Therefore, the display power is automatically turned on each time the power switch on the PC is
pressed as in step 2 below.
• If the screen display is not centered, check if the screen refresh rate is set in accordance with the
display. If the problem persists, adjust the display.
• When turning off the PC immediately after you turn it on, wait for the OS to startup and turn off the
power according to “Turning Off the Power”.
• At the beginning of a screen display (such as the Windows startup and shutdown screen) or when
the display mode is changed (for example, from the power-saving mode to the normal mode), the
screen may be distorted temporarily or display horizontal lines. This does not indicate a fault.
• When the PC is turned on, the system performs POST (Power-On Self-Test) to check the internal
hardware components. Meanwhile, the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen. Do not turn off the system
during POST. When the POST detects an error, an error message is displayed.
• During system startup (including contract on unpacking) or system shutdown, or when the Virus
Scan window appears, the band-like noise may appear for a second. This does not indicate a fault.
• When the upper cover has been removed for installing a peripheral device, make sure that the cover
is installed before turning on the power.

2Additional Cautions
Preventing Television or Radio Interference
This PC conforms to the VCCI standard for prevention of television and radio interference. However,
the PC may cause interference if installed near a radio or television set. Such interference does not
mean that the PC has a problem.
To prevent television and radio interference, note the following.
Notes concerning the PC
• Do not use the PC with the cover open.
• Use the specified cables to connect peripheral devices (do not use other cables).
• When connecting a cable, confirm that the connector is connected securely. Tighten the screws
firmly.
• Plug the PC to a different wall outlet from that a television or radio set is connected to.
Notes concerning television and radio sets
• Do not install a television or radio set near the PC.
• Adjust the television or radio antennas to eliminate interference.
• Do not route television or radio antenna cables near the PC.
• Use coaxial antenna cable.
To determine whether the PC or peripheral devices affect television or radio reception, turn off the
PC and peripheral devices.
If interference occurs, check the above items again.
If interference still occurs, contact a Fujitsu Service Center or your retailer.
USB (Windows Me/98/95/2000 models)
USB is an acronym for Universal Serial Bus, which is a standard for common interfaces for a mouse,
keyboard, printer, modem, and speakers.
Point
• Some USB peripheral devices require installation of the device driver.
• USB is supported by the Windows Me/98/95/2000 operating systems. In using a USB device,
make sure that it is supported by the OS.
• Some USB devices affect normal Windows shutdown. In this case, disconnect the USB device
before shutting down Windows.
• Even if your keyboard has a PS/2 mouse port, connect the mouse to the mouse port on the rear
panel of the PC unit.

USB keyboard (Windows 98 models)
When you enable [Use shortcut keys] on [Control Panel] – [User support] – [Filter key] – [Configuration],
the shortcut key function does not work even if you keep pressing the right Shift key for more than
eight seconds and therefore [Use the filter key function] cannot be configured.
Select the [Use the filter key function] check box using the mouse.
Addition of a LAN card
• When you use this PC as a client and add a LAN card (including wireless LAN card), you cannot
use it together with the standard LAN function at the same time. Select [Details] – [Other built-in
devices] on BIOS Setup and set [LAN controller] to [Do not use].
• If you want to use more than one LAN card at the same time, you need a server OS such as Windows
2000 Server or Windows NT 4.0 Server.
Wakeup On LAN
On machines with Wakeup On LAN installed as a standard function, select [Power saving] – [Automatic
Wakeup] – [Wakeup On LAN] on BIOS Setup to configure the function.
When you use a security-supporting LAN card (custom-made option), select [Power saving] –
[Automatic Wakeup] – [Wakeup On PCI PME] on BIOS Setup for configuration.
Cautions on using a display
• The screen may be distorted or display horizontal lines in the following cases. This is not a failure.
- When Windows starts up or shut down
- When the system enters or exits the standby mode
- When screen resolution, the number of colors, or refresh rate is changed
- When the display mode changes from or to a full-screen display
- When the system enters or exits the suspend mode
• The PC does not support simultaneous use of an analog and digital displays. Use either display
only.
Cautions on using a digital display
LCD
Connect a digital display and turn it on before turning on the PC.
If the digital display is connected after turning on the PC, the display may show nothing. Also, the
display may show nothing if the digital display is turned on later than the PC.
Digital display output
The digital display output cannot be used for monitors that support resolutions higher than XGA
(1024 x 768). Use a monitor supporting XGA or lower resolutions.
Cautions on using an analog display
• On some analog LCD monitors, objects may appear over another. If this occurs, set the refresh
rate to 60 Hz.
• Some analog displays are not detected automatically if used with a Windows 2000 model. This
does not indicate a fault.
• When screen position is adjusted on a 640 • 480 (60 Hz) Windows screen on an analog display, the
position of the BIOS Setup screen or MS-DOS screen may change. In this case, adjust the position
of each screen.
