The PC system may not be reactivated until it cools down enough.

Information on Hard Drive / Memory Capacity

HDD and SSD Capacity

The hard drive capacity shown by Windows is lower than that stated by the hard drive manufacturer due to a difference in calculation.

Manufacturer

Hard drive manufacturers use a decimal definition of 1 KB = 1,000 Bytes.

100 GB: 100,000 MB / 1,000 Bytes = 100 GB

Windows

Windows use the binary definition of 1 KB = 1,024 Bytes.

100 GB: 100,000 MB / 1,024 Bytes = 97.6 GB

RAM Capacity

RAM capacity shown by Windows may be lower than the actual capacity because the PC uses shared memory for BIOS and the integrated graphics card.

Due to BIOS using shared memory, 1,024 MB RAM may be reported as 1,022 MB or slightly less.

If the PC has integrated graphics card, 1,024 MB RAM may be reported as 1,022 MB or less than 1,000 MB.

Function of a CMOS backup battery

The CMOS backup battery of the main board ensures that the system setup (BIOS) does not disappear even if the power is disconnected.

The CMOS backup battery is an expendable part.

Caution:

Please visit the LG Electronics Service Center to exchange the CMOS backup battery.
The computer may be damaged if an incompatible battery is used.
The product warranty is not applied to failure or breakdown caused by willful damage by the user.

Adjusting Volume (headset and speakers)

Check the volume level before listening to music.

Caution:

Before using the headset, check if the volume is too high.
Do not use the headset too long.
