If the computer seems slow
• Check that Cache is enabled (in the System Configuration Utility, open the
System menu and check Enable Cache).
• You might need to install more RAM. The memory-expansion boards are HP
part numbers F1168A (16 MB), F1169A (32 MB) and F1119A (64 MB).
• Try pressing the reset button.
If the infrared connection does not work
• Try re-aligning the two devices to align their infrared ports. Make sure the two
devices are no more than 0.5 meter apart.
• Check the settings in your communications software and in the OmniBook's IR
Monitor. IrDA must be enabled.
If a parallel device does not work
• The bus speed of the device may be too slow for the OmniBook. Try decreasing
the OmniBook’s bus speed by pressing
FN+MINUS (-). You can restore the
normal speed by pressing
FN+PLUS (=).
If you cannot install Windows NT 3.51
• In the System Configuration Utility, under the System menu, Boot Devices,
enable the checkbox Force PCI Bridge Configuration.
