- Suspend in AC mode - Modem, ATA, Flash PC Cards do not enter standby mode
- Suspend in Battery mode - Network PC Card does not enter standby/suspend mode
- Hibernation in AC mode - Modem, ATA, Flash PC Cards do not enter standby/suspend mode
- Hibernation in Battery mode - Network PC Card does not enter standby/suspend mode
Suspend/Resume is not supported during recording function of IBM VoiceType for Windows 95.
In Windows 3.11, some Video for Windows files may not be displayed with correct color when the video window is outside the screen. Move the window inside the screen to recover.
SO DIMM P/N 50H7660 with DRAM P/N 43H7496 is not supported
Megahertz XJEM3336 PC Card is not supported on Windows 95 and Windows NT

CardWorks may not recognize that a PCMCIA card has been inserted into the ThinkPad 380 Port Replicator when the port replicator slots are used for the first time. If you experience this problem, open My Computer, open Control Panel, open System Icon, click on Device Manager Tab and then click Refresh.
Welcome screen and Tutorial are restricted in 640 x 480 x 16M color on OS/2.
TranXit for Windows 95 cannot communicate with TranXit for OS/2.
APM.SYS in OS/2 Warp 4 does not issue resume notifications upon suspend/resume events on the second time and after. Typical symptoms are:
- The system does not resume upon ring indicator after second in-coming call
- Audio playback does not work after second resume event. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR JR09440.
OS/2 Warp 4 boot fails very intermittently. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR JR09461.
IBM PCMCIA Infrared Wireless LAN Adapter is not recognized when it is used with Adaptec SCSI device driver AHA152X.ADD on OS/2 Warp 4. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR JR09462.
Some IBM Auto 16/4 Credit Card Token-Ring Adapters may fail to con nect to the network intermittently with IBMTOKCS.OS2 driver in OS/2 Warp 4. If you experience this problem, get Version 2.054 of IBMTOKCS.OS2 driver on the Internet at: http://www.raleigh.ibm.com/nes/neshome.html
TCP/IP protocol is not removed correctly when LAN Distance support is already installed on OS/2 Warp 4, and you try to remove TCP/IP protocol. As a result, the system encounters Trap D upon next boot. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR IC15805.
Use boot manager when booting OS/2 Warp from a secondary drive, such as the PCMCIA Type III drive.
When using Windows 95 or OS/2 Warp 3, a suspend/resume operation during AVI file, MIDI, WAV, or other audio feature operation may cause an audio/video synchronous problem or the application to hang. The application should be closed before entering a suspend.
Some optional features or applications may use the COM2 port. OS/2 Warp 3 will not load COM.SYS if the COM2 port is already in use. Only one such feature or application that uses the COM2 (for example, communications or PCMCIA) can be used at a time.
The OS/2 Warp FixPak XR0W009 is required for audio and video support for Indeo**-format video file playback functions.
When OS/2 Warp 4 is installed, the following error message appears intermittently and the installation may fail. "MOUSE$ is not functioning" If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR JR09480.
OS/2 Warp 4 boot takes very long on the Pentium 150MHz with MMX technology system when the hard disk is FAT. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR JR09481.

The PC Card slots accept one Zoomed Video port card only in the lower slot.
These systems support PCMCIA PC cards that draw a maximum of 5 watts for PC Card slots of the system and 7 watts for PC Card slots of theThinkPad 380/385 Port Replicator.
The 6318/6321/G40 CRT is not supported because the interlace mode isn't supported at 1024 x 768 resolution.
The system audible alarm will not sound under some setup modes. It can be enabled by using the ThinkPad Features program.
In external CRT that supports only VGA resolution cannot be installed if the display mode is both LCD and CRT, because the display port always has an SVGA signal as long as the LCD screen is on.
Enabling IR on the host system during a co-sessions host session is not supported.
A suspend/resume operation during a modem application in the Windows DOS box may cause the application to hang. The modem application should be closed before entering a suspend.
A suspend/resume operation during audio recording may result in unexpected results. Audio recordings should be stopped before entering suspend.
When using the redirection feature of the Connectivity Pack for the HP 100LX or HP 200LX to exchange data over an IR link at 115 Kbps, the ThinkPad 380ED should be configured as the requestor.

When installing two Type II PCMCIA communications cards in the PCMCIA slot, there may be some cable interference that allows only one card to be used.
PC card point enablers may write directly to the hardware, bypassing Socket and Card Services. Writing directly to the hardware may cause problems that cannot be anticipated. Also, point enablers may interfere with client device drivers that do communicate with Socket and Card Services. Additional customer testing in their specific environments is recommended.
The IBM Keyboard/Mouse Connector accessory is required when attaching an external keyboard to the system via the external input device port
SUSPEND MODE OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
Do not remove or install PC cards during suspend mode.
When using Windows 3.11, ensure that Advanced Power Management (APM) is installed.
The system should be in either hibernation or "off" when exchanging the battery.
During suspend mode, the maximum power output becomes 100 mW at 12 V. During suspend mode, PCMCIA cards cannot consume more than 60 mA at 12 V.
When using the ThinkPad 560 Port Replicator and CRT monitor, the computer output is displayed only on the LCD of the computer after suspend and resume.
The LCD screen cannot be displayed correctly after suspend/resume operation while the CRT monitor is connected to the ThinkPad 560 Port Replicator attached to a ThinkPad 380/380D system.
The IBM 3270 PCMCIA adapter cannot be used in a DOS environment.
An interlaced CRT display, for example, a G40, 6318, or 6321 display monitor in 1024 x 768 resolution, cannot be supported.
When booting up OS/2 Warp 4, a system problem may occur when displaying OS/2 Welcome message and Tutorial when there is 640 x 480 resolution with 16M color setting.
STANDARD SECURITY FEATURES
Electronic Personalization
The Electronic Personalization feature is like a name tag on yourThinkPad. Your name, contact address or phone number can be dis played on the screen when the system is turned on. This helps in case the ThinkPad is misplaced. The personal data is stored in the system's non-volatile memory and is displayed with a password prompt.
Passwords
A Power-on Password (POP) protects the system from unauthorized use. If a POP is set, the password prompt appears:
- Each time the system is turned on
- When the system is returned to normal operation from hibernation mode
A hard disk drive (HHD) password (HDP) is used to protect HDD data. Once the HDP is set, data on the HDD cannot be accessed without the correct HDP. Because the HDP is stored on the HDD, the data remains protected even if the HDD is removed to another system.
The HDP password prompt appears:
- Each time the system is turned on
- When the system is returned to normal operation from suspend mode
OPTIONAL SECURITY FEATURES
The user can attach a Kensington Lock to the keyhole on the side of the computer. This allows the system to be leashed to any convenient fixed point.
