LED Error Codes

Power Button Light Codes

Device Status Lights

If your computer is connected to an electrical outlet, the light operates as follows:

lSolid blue—The battery is charging.

lFlashing blue—The battery is almost fully charged.

If your computer is running on a battery, the light operates as follows:

lOff—The battery is adequately charged, or the computer is turned off.

lFlashing orange—The battery charge is low.

lSolid orange—The battery charge is critically low.

LED Error Codes

If your computer does not perform a Power-On Self-Test upon boot up, there are various things to look for:

1. Check that the computer power light is on.

2. If the power light is not on, ensure that your computer is plugged into AC power. Remove the battery.

3. If your computer is powered on but is not performing a POST, check to see whether or not the keyboard status lights flash to indicate a successful POST

but no video or if the keyboard status lights are lit in a sequence indicating a system problem.

The following table shows the possible LED codes that may display in a no-POST situation.

Device status lights located in the center of the

hinge cover.

1—Turns on when your computer reads or writes data to the hard drive.

NOTE: To avoid loss of data, never turn off your computer while the Hard Drive light is flashing.

2—Turns on when wireless networking is enabled.

3—Turns on when a card with Bluetooth®wireless technology is enabled.

NOTE: The card with Bluetooth wireless technology is an optional feature, so the light turns on only if

you ordered the card with your computer. For more information, see the documentation that came

with your card.

To turn off only the Bluetooth wireless technology functionality, right-click the icon in the system tray
