Using the Keyboard
This computer has a close-to-full-sized keyboard and an embedded numeric keypad, separate cursor, lock,
function and special keys.
Lock Keys and embedded numeric keypad

The keyboard has three lock keys which you can toggle on and off.
Lock key Description

Caps Lock When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed are in uppercase.
Num Lock When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in numeric mode. The keys
<Fn> + <F11> function as a calculator (complete with the arithmetic operators +, -, *, and /). Use
this mode when you need to do a lot of numeric data entry. A better solution
would be to connect an external keypad.
Scroll Lock <Fn> + When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when you press
<F12> the up or down arrow keys respectively. Scroll Lock does not work with some
applications.
The embedded numeric keypad functions like a desktop numeric keypad. It is indicated by small characters
located on the upper right corner of the keycaps. To simplify the keyboard legend, cursor-control key symbols
are not printed on the keys.

Your computer is already properly configured and optimized, and you do not need to run this utility. However, if
you encounter configuration problems, you may need to run Setup. Please also refer to Chapter 4
Troubleshooting when problem arises.
To activate the BIOS Utility, press F2 during POST (when Press <F2> to enter Setup message is prompted
on the bottom of screen).
Press F2 to enter setup. The default parameter of F12 Boot Menu is set to “disabled”. If you want to change
boot device without entering BIOS Setup Utility, please set the parameter to “enabled”.
Press <F12> during POST to enter multi-boot menu. In this menu, user can change boot device without
entering BIOS SETUP Utility.
Navigating the BIOS Utility

There are six menu options: Information, Main, Advanced, Security, Power, Boot, and Exit.
Follow these instructions:
• To choose a menu, use the left and right arrow keys.
• To choose an item, use the up and down arrow keys.

Machine Disassembly and Replacement

This chapter contains step-by-step procedures on how to disassemble the notebook computer for
maintenance and troubleshooting.
Disassembly Requirements
To disassemble the computer, you need the following tools:
• Wrist grounding strap and conductive mat for preventing electrostatic discharge
• Flat screwdriver
• Philips screwdriver
• Plastic flat screwdriver
• Plastic tweezers
NOTE: The screws for the different components vary in size. During the disassembly process, group the
screws with the corresponding components to avoid mismatch when putting back the components.
Related Information
The product previews seen in the disassembly procedures may not represent the final product color or
configuration.
IMPORTANT: Cable paths and positioning may not represent the actual model. During the removal and
replacement of components, ensure all available cable channels and clips are used and that the cables are
replaced in the same position.
General Information
Pre-disassembly Instructions
Before proceeding with the disassembly procedure, make sure that you do the following:
1. Turn off the power to the system and all peripherals.
2. Unplug the AC adapter and all power and signal cables from the system.
3. Place the system on a flat, stable surface.

4. Remove the battery pack.
Chapter 3 39
Disassembly Process
The disassembly process is divided into the following sections:
• External components disassembly
• Main unit disassembly
• LCD module disassembly
The flowcharts provided in the succeeding disassembly sections illustrate the entire disassembly sequence.
Observe the order of the sequence to avoid damage to any of the hardware components. For example, if you
want to remove the Mainboard, you must first remove the Keyboard, and LCD Module then disassemble the
inside assembly frame in that order.

Chapter 4 159
Intermittent Problems
Intermittent system hang problems can be caused by a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a
hardware defect, such as: cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or software errors. FRU replacement
should be considered only when a recurring problem exists.
When analyzing an intermittent problem, do the following:
1. Run the advanced diagnostic test for the system board in loop mode at least 10 times.
2. If no error is detected, do not replace any FRU.
3. If any error is detected, replace the FRU. Rerun the test to verify that there are no more errors.
Undetermined Problems
The diagnostic problems does not identify which adapter or device failed, which installed devices are incorrect,
whether a short circuit is suspected, or whether the system is inoperative.
Follow these procedures to isolate the failing FRU (do not isolate non-defective FRU).
NOTE: Verify that all attached devices are supported by the computer.
NOTE: Verify that the power supply being used at the time of the failure is operating correctly. (See “Power On
Issue” on page 150.):
1. Power-off the computer.
2. Visually check them for damage. If any problems are found, replace the FRU.
3. Remove or disconnect all of the following devices:
• Non-Acer devices
• Printer, mouse, and other external devices
• Battery pack
• Hard disk drive
• DIMM
• CD-ROM/Diskette drive Module
• PC Cards
4. Power-on the computer.
5. Determine if the problem has changed.
6. If the problem does not recur, reconnect the removed devices one at a time until you find the failing FRU.
7. If the problem remains, replace the following FRU one at a time. Do not replace a non-defective FRU:
• System board
• LCD assembly

Clearing Password Check and BIOS Recovery
This section provides a procedure for clearing the password and BIOS. The Hardware Open Gap on the
mainboard clears the CMOS of all user settings and restores factory defaults.
Mainboard CMOS Discharge

Discharging the CMOS clears all user settings.
1. Disassemble the notebook and take out the Mainboard. See “Removing the Mainboard” on page 69.
2. Remove the RTC battery. See “Removing the RTC Battery” on page 73.
3. Turn the mainboard over, lift up the DIMM protective cover, and short the G3 pad.
4. Reconnect the RTC battery and reassemble the unit.

BIOS Recovery by Crisis Disk
BIOS Recovery Boot Block

The BIOS Recovery Boot Block is a special block of BIOS. It is used to boot up the system with minimum BIOS
initialization. Users can enable this feature to restore the BIOS firmware to the factory settings if a BIOS flash
process fails.
BIOS Recovery Hotkey

The system provides a function hotkey: Fn+Esc, to enable the BIOS Recovery process when a system is
powered on during BIOS POST. To use this function, it is strongly recommended to have the AC adapter and
Battery present. If this function is enabled, the system will force the BIOS to enter a special BIOS block, called
Boot Block.
Steps for BIOS Recovery from USB Storage

Before performing this procedure, prepare a Crisis USB key. The Crisis USB key can be made by executing
the Crisis Disk program in a functioning system with a Windows XP, Vista or 7 OS.
IMPORTANT:The Crisis Disk program will overwrite all data on any drive that you use as a crisis disk.
Follow the steps below:
1. Modify the archive name from ZE8 bios to ZE8X64.fd
2. Save ROM file (file name: ZE8X64.fd) to the root directory of the USB storage.
3. Plug the USB storage into a USB port of the machine to have the crisis utility run on.
4. Remove the battery and AC adaptor of the machine.
5. While pressing the Fn + ESC buttons plug in the AC adaptor and then press Power. Keep pressing
Fn+ESC till the power button flashes.
The LED of the USB flash disk flashes for three (3) to seven (7) minutes.
When CRISIS is complete, the system auto restarts with a workable BIOS.
6. Update the latest version BIOS for this machine by the regular BIOS flashing process.
