HP Jornada H/PC User’s Guide

Display

If you are having trouble viewing your data, here are some
suggestions.

Screen is blank

If your HP Jornada fails to respond when you briefly press
the On/Off key, try holding the button down for a full
second. If that does not work:

•

Make sure your battery cover is locked and all expansion
slots are secured.

•

Adjust the display contrast. On some devices, the screen
can darken or lighten to the point that it appears to be
turned off.

•

Reset your HP Jornada. (See the

Resetting section in

this chapter.)

•

Recharge the main battery.

Screen is dark

Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause your
HP Jornada screen to temporarily darken. This is a normal
occurrence with LCD screens and is not permanent.

Resetting

Occasionally, you will need to reset your HP Jornada; for
example, you may reset after you restore data from your
desktop PC or when the operating system stops respond-
ing. There are two methods of resetting:

•

Soft reset—A soft

reset (also called “warm boot”) is

similar to restarting your desktop PC. It restarts the
operating system and preserves any saved data.

•

Full reset—A full reset (also called “hard reset”) re-
stores your HP Jornada to its original state, erasing all
information you have entered.
