And make certain that your computer isn't set to go to sleep or hibernate after a certain period of inactivity... check energy saver settings...

I think my problems may have been down to two things:

1. Possibly there was a bit of damp inside (the manual warns about this causing the symptoms I saw).

2. It was not sufficiently charged (despite the little red light going out).

I'm going to leave it charging overnight and we'll see in the morning.

I thought I would post this in case anyone else has similar problems. I was all set to return it to the store tomorrow. Probably won't now.
