The computer will perform any 'tidying-up'
operations necessary, such as quitting any
applications you've been using.
A window will appear when this has happened,
telling you that the computer is ready to be
switched off.
3 Switch off the computer and peripherals
Remove any floppy discs from the disc drive.
Switch off the computer at the ON/OFF switch on
the back.
Switch the monitor off. If you have any other
peripherals connected to your computer, check in
the manuals supplied with them to see whether you
need to switch them off every time you switch off
the computer.
Note: When the window appears telling you
shutdown has completed, you can restart the
computer instead of switching off.
Click on Restart to do this, or hold down the
Ctrl key and press the Break key or the Reset
button.
Hint: Some applications do not give up all of the
computer's memory they've used when you quit
them. This is a good way of 'reclaiming' that
memory.
