System Protection Feature
If the system becomes too hot, the system protection feature automatically stops recharging the battery and switches to hibernate mode or turns the power off.
The PC system may not be reactivated until it cools down enough.
Information on Hard Drive / Memory Capacity
Information on Hard Drive (HDD, SSD, eMMC) Capacity
The hard drive capacity shown by Windows is lower than that stated by the hard drive manufacturer due to a difference in calculation.
7
ENGLISH
Manufacturer Hard drive manufacturers use a decimal definition of 1 KB = 1,000
Bytes.
100 GB Storage Device (HDD, SSD, eMMC): 100,000 MB / 1,000 Bytes = 100 GB
Windows Windows use the binary definition of 1 KB = 1,024 Bytes.
100 GB Storage Device (HDD, SSD, eMMC): 100,000 MB / 1,024 Bytes = 97.6 GB
RAM Capacity
RAM capacity shown by Windows may be lower than the actual capacity because the PC uses shared memory for BIOS and the integrated graphics card.
Due to BIOS using shared memory, 1,024 MB RAM may be reported as 1,022 MB or slightly less.
If the PC has integrated graphics card, 1,024 MB RAM may be reported as 1,022 MB or less than 1,000 MB.
CMOS Backup Battery
The CMOS backup battery of the main board ensures that the system setup (BIOS) does not disappear even if the power is disconnected.
The CMOS backup battery is an expendable component.
CMOS backup battery may not be available depending on the model.
Introduction / Important Safety Precautions
