you will step to the next choice. The choices, in

When the ATI Driver
CD is first installed, you
receive a Microsoft
message informing you
that the ATI driver is not
compatible with your

your Fujitsu LifeBook; the driver
has been thoroughly tested and its
installation will not jeopardize
the performance of your system.

If this message appears on your screen, click the
Continue Anyway or Yes buttons to proceed.

The LifeBook notebook

Contact your support representative.

The display goes blank
by itself after you have

The LifeBook notebook has gone
into Video timeout, Standby

to restore operation. If that fails, push the Suspend/
Resume button. Check your power management

Remove all foreign objects from the keyboard.

If the spots are very tiny and few
in number, this is normal for a

This is normal; do nothing.
