Resetting the Computer
Occasionally, you may want to clear the computer’s memory
without turning it off. You can do this by resetting the
computer.
For example, if an error occurs and the computer does not
respond to your keyboard entries, you can reset it to reload
your operating system and try again. However, resetting erases
any data in memory that you have not saved, so reset only if
necessary.
caution
Do not reset the computer to exit a program. Some programs
classify and store new data when you exit them normally. If
you reset the computer without properly exiting a program,
you may lose data.
Also do not remove a diskette or reset or turn off the
computer while a diskette drive light is on. You could lose
data. Be sure to remove all diskettes before you turn off the
computer.

Ctrl Alt Del.
The screen displays
nothing for a moment and then the computer reloads your
operating system.

If resetting the computer does not correct the problem, you
probably need to turn it off and on again. Remove any
diskette(s) from the diskette drive(s). Turn off the computer
and wait 20 seconds. If you do not have a hard disk, insert the
system diskette in drive A. Then turn on the computer.
