Access Connections
Access Connections is a connectivity assistant program for creating and managing location proles. Each
location prole stores all the network and Internet conguration settings needed for connecting to a network
infrastructure from a specic location such as a home or an ofce.
By switching between location proles as you move your computer from place to place, you can quickly and
easily connect to a network with no need to recongure your settings manually and restart the computer
each time.
To open the Access Connections program, do the following:
For Windows 7: See “Accessing applications in Windows 7” on page 20
.
For Windows XP: Click Start All Programs ThinkVantage Access Connections.
Active Protection System
The Active Protection System protects your hard disk drive when the shock sensor inside your computer
detects a condition that could damage the drive, such as system tilt, excessive vibration, or shock. The hard
disk drive is less vulnerable to damage when it is not operating; so the system stops it from spinning, and
may also move the read/write heads of the drive to areas that do not contain data. As soon as the shock
sensor senses that the environment is stable again (minimal change in system tilt, vibration, or shock), it
turns the hard disk drive on.
