If the Windows Security window appears, click Restart.
4 If this procedure does not work, press and hold the power button until the computer turns off.

Turning off your computer with the power button may cause loss of unsaved data.
What should I do if the battery indicator is flashing and my computer does not start?
❑ This symptom could be due to the battery pack not being installed properly. To resolve this symptom, turn off your
computer and remove the battery pack. Then install the battery pack to the computer again. For details, see Installing
the Battery Pack (page 21).
❑ If the symptom persists after performing the above, it means the installed battery pack is not compatible. Remove the
battery pack and contact an authorized Sony Service Center. To find the nearest center or agent, see Sony Support
Information (page 207) or visit the Sony online support Web site.
