computer will resume to normal operation.
 My computer says: “CMOS Battery Low”, what should I do?
If your computer is without power (i.e. unplug the computer
power source from the power outlet and remove the battery
pack from it) for over 45 days, you would lose the information
stored in CMOS.
Please follow the steps below to reconfigure your CMOS set-
tings:
1. Press F2 to enter into the BIOS setup utility.
2. Select “Load Optional Defaults?”. When you see the follow-
ing prompt, choose <OK> and then press <Enter>.
3. Select “Save Changes and Exit”, select <OK> and press
<Enter> to restart your computer.
 How to unplug or eject devices
1.In the notification area next to your task bar, double-click the
Safe Removal icon. Safe removal displays a list of Plug and
Play devices that support safe removal and that are currently
attached to the system.
If you do not see the Safe Removal icon, your device does not
support safe removal, and you cannot unplug or eject your de-
vice using Safe Removal.
2.In Safely Remove Hardware, in the list of devices, select the
device that you want to unplug or eject, and then click Stop.
This tells the system that you will be unplugging or ejecting the
device.
3.In Stop a Hardware device, click OK.
A notification appears stating that it is now safe to unplug or
eject the device.
Caution
Unplugging or ejecting a device that supports safe removal
without first using the Safe Removal application to warn the
system can cause data to be lost or your system to become
unstable. For example, if a device is unplugged during a data
transfer, data loss is likely. If you use Safe Removal, however,
you can warn the system before you unplug or eject a device,
preventing possible loss of data.
Note
For removable storage devices that can safely be removed
while the system is on, the system disables write caching by
default. It does this so the devices can be removed without
loss of data. When write caching is disable, however, the
system wll likely experience slower performance, so be sure
to enable write caching when you have finished removing the
device.
