Technical Information
Network
When the power saving function is running, communications software may malfunc-
tion. For example, communications may be halted if the standby (hibernation) mode
is activated. The computer must be restarted if one of these modes is entered during
data communications.
Be sure that the power of the display is cut (for energy conservation purposes) or the
computer enters standby (hibernation) mode after the communications software is
closed.
The network connection may be severed under the condition the power of the display
is off (for energy conservation purposes) and standby (hibernation) mode.
Windows 2000
When network or communication software is to be used, set [System standby] and
[System hibernates], [Turn off monitor] and [Turn off hard disks] (in [Start] - [Settings]
- [Control Panel] - [Power Options]) to [Never].
Windows XP
When network or communication software is to be used, set [System standby] and
[System hibernates], [Turn off monitor] and [Turn off hard disks] (in [start] - [Control
Panel] - [Performance and Maintenance] - [Power Options]) to [Never].
Windows Security Function
Windows has a security function that differs from the security function of the Setup
Utility. For detailed information, refer to the Windows help.
Set the password for secrecy and protection.
Only an account for the Administrator is created the first time the computer is
started. Create accounts for person or persons who are actually going to use a
computer.
We recommend using an NTFS file system in order to use the Windows security
function.
