Starting up

Powering on your UMPC

Like a regular desktop PC, your UMPC automatically runs a series of diagnostic tests

called Power-On Self Test (POST) upon turning it on. After POST is completed, your

UMPC boots up, then its Windows

®

operating system starts automatically.

To power on your UMPC:
1. Locate the power switch at the left side

of your UMPC.

2. Press the switch down to turn on the

UMPC. The UMPC boots up, then the

operating system starts automatically.

3. Use your UMPC as you would use a

regular desktop PC.

NOTE: If your UMPC does not turn on, check if the Hold button is in Hold (red) mode

or if the battery pack is charged.
