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 store

data when you exit them. If you reset the computer without

properly exiting a program, you may lose the data.

To reset your computer, press Ctrl Alt Del and then follow the

instructions on the screen. You can also press the RESET button

located on the front of your computer. The screen displays nothing

for a moment and then the computer reloads the 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. Then turn on the computer.

Using a Password

Using SETUP, you can define both a Supervisor level password

and a User level password. You can also specify whether a

password is required when you start the system. In addition, the

password can control who has access to the diskette drives.
