  • Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition

This article was previously published under Q267516

SYMPTOMS

When you upgrade to Microsoft Windows Millennium (Me) on a Fujitsu LifeBook E370 portable computer, and then the computer is left idle at the logon prompt, the computer may enter hibernation mode and you may not be able to resume.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur when the basic input/output system (BIOS) incorrectly responds to Windows Me hibernation.

RESOLUTION

To work around this behavior when it has occurred, turn the computer off and then on again. To prevent this behavior, log on to the computer before it goes idle.

MORE INFORMATION

According to the information on the Fujitsu Windows Millennium Help Center Web site, upgrading your existing Fujitsu LifeBook from Windows 95 or Windows 98 to Windows Me may involve changes to the system BIOS and to device drivers and other system components.
