Uninstall the graphics driver in Safe Mode:

    1. Restart the computer, press [F8] aftmultiple times after the Fujitsu logo shows but before the Windows logo shows
    2. A list of options will show, choose "Safe Mode"
    3. Once in Safe Mode, open Control Panel then Device Manager
    4. Open Display adapters, right-click ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 and choose Uninstall
    5. Check Delete the driver software for this device
    6. Complete the process by clicking OK and closing all windows, then restart the computer

Reinstall the graphics driver:

    1. Either download the driver from www.us.fujitsu.com or use the Drivers And Applications Disc

It displays YUY2 format correctly on sender's PC, but when video picture is sent to other PC, it converts the video format to RGB24.

And when video format is converted, the video picture is converted upside down

Effects of Loud Music on Shock Sensor Utility Functionality
Products Involved

  • Fujitsu Shock Sensor Utility
  • Fujitsu LifeBook A3110 Notebook PC
  • Fujitsu LifeBook A6010 Notebook PC

Solution

The Fujitsu Shock Sensor utility is designed to help protect your hard disk drive in the event of excessive vibration or shock to the system. In the event your drive is subjected to excessive vibration or shock, there is a possibility that the read-write head could come into contact with the rotating platter, resulting in a "head crash." If that should happen, data loss may occur. The Fujitsu Shock Sensor feature is designed to minimize the likelihood of such an event.

When playing certain types of music at high volume, particularly with internal speakers, you may notice one or both of the following:

  • You may receive multiple hard disk drive "park" notification messages due to excessive system vibration.
  • You may notice that your music occasionally skips or stutters.

These effects are a result of excessive system vibration during music playback at high volume resulting in parking of the hard disk drive. If the audio quality of your system is impacted by either of these effects, you should change the following settings during music playback:

  1. Open the Shock Sensor options in the Shock Sensor Utility Settings by going to [Start] \All Programs \ Shock Sensor Utility \ Configuration.
  2. Set "Ignore periodic vibrations", "Ignore mouse click", and "Ignore keyboard action" if these settings are not already applied.

If the above step does not help, then reduce the Shock Sensor sensitivities (Sensitivity of impact, Sensitivity of horizontal move, and Sensitivity of fall).

To clean the computer or to stop from being infected, Fujitsu recommends you take the following actions:
