Known issues using Windows XP
When playing a DVD using Media Player in Windows XP, several display issues may
appear. Below are two techniques for improving this inconsistency:
¾Press the Window key once or twice.
¾Press Fn+Page Up or Fn+ Page Down once or twice.
To avoid this issue completely, HP recommends you use Win DVD for uninterrupted
DVD playing.
Using an Internet Proxy Server
If you set up an Internet connection that uses a LAN proxy server, you should enable
the option for bypassing the proxy server for local addresses. Otherwise, you may
experience delays accessing local computers or other resources on your network.
Accessing Local Area Networks
HP recommends checking the bypass proxy for local addresses to accelerate accessing
local network. To check this, do the following:
1. Click Start, Control Panel, Network and Internet Connections, Internet Options.
2. On the Connections tab, click LAN Settings. Make sure the option for bypassing
proxy server for local addresses is not checked.
3. Restart the notebook and attempt to access your LAN
4. View your workgroup computers and access one of them.
When you try to access a folder the hourglass icon appears. It can take 15 minutes
or more to access a folder. If you view the Task Manager during this time, it will say
that the network neighborhood is not responding.
Also, if you interrupt the task during this time, you will lose all desktop icons, the
taskbar, and the Start menu, and will need to restart the notebook.

5. If the option for bypassing proxy server for local addresses is checked, you may
experience a 15-second delay.
75-watt - AC adpater Caution
Use only the HP AC adapter included with your notebook, or another approved
HP adapter. Using any other AC adapter can damage the adapter, and may void
your warranty.
The pre-installed electronic online manual on your notebook may refer to the use
of a 60-watt AC adapter designed for an earlier released product. A 60-watt AC
adapter SHOULD NOT be used with this current product.
Plug the AC adapter into the power source (the adapter’s LED lights), then connect it to
the AC adapter jack on the back of the notebook. The notebook’s battery then begins
charging.
You must fully charge your battery before first using your notebook. The battery
indicator light will turn green when fully charged.
One Touch Button and Hibernation
If you force your system to go into hibernate mode manually, when using the one touch
button to resume, it will take about one minute to launch the associated one touch
application.
DVD+RW Video CD
When using WinDVD to play DVD+RW video CD in full screen, the CPU usage is at
100% resulting in a lagging video to audio output.
One Touch Buttons with Multiple Users
If one user launches any One Touch program, then switches to another user, the One
Touch buttons and volume control will not function.
