Q3 My LifeBook S series seems to overheat quickly. The manual shows three slots in the back as vents for the fan. My vents are closed and sealed. The new S series has three openings for the fan to blow the heat from the unit. Is my unit faulty or has the new S series been improved?
A3 This model is designed without a fan because the CPU can take the heat. The LifeBook incorporates a heat sink feature whereby heat is conducted to the top of the CPU and dissipated over a surface area, hence the system feels warm. The user manual shows other models with similar features where the CPU has less heat sink on top of the CPU and therefore require a fan to cool down the system.

Q4 I have a LifeBook S-4510. May I know how to enable the function that automatically suspends my notebook when I close it, and resume its previous function when I open the LCD screen? Also would the CD-R/RW function well if I use Windows XP? Will I be able to use the same driver & software?
A4 For this function, please check your 'Power Options' from the 'Control Panel', and 'Settings'. When the LCD screen is closed, the system will be suspended or go into 'Hibernate' mode. From the BIOS under 'Power' section, check that the 'Resume' option is on when opening the LCD screen.

For the CD/R-RW, no driver is needed for the CD-R/RW drive when using the default Windows XP 'CD-Recorder' feature to write on the CD-ROM disk. The CD-R/RW application bundled with your S-4510 cannot support Windows XP and you should not attempt to install it. For more information, please refer to Microsoft's website. In addition, you can go to www.roxio.com for CD-R/RW application information update.
