Restarting (rebooting) your notebook
Restarting (rebooting) your
notebook
If your notebook does not respond to keyboard, touchpad, or mouse
input, you may have to close programs that are not responding. If closing
unresponsive programs does not restore your notebook to normal
operation, you may have to restart (reboot) your notebook.
To close unresponsive programs and restart your notebook:
1 Press CTRL+ALT+DEL. The Windows Security dialog box opens.
2 Click Task Manager. The Windows Task Manager dialog box opens.
3 Click the program that is not responding.
4 Click End Task.
5 Click X in the top-right corner of the Windows Task Manager dialog
box.
6 If your notebook does not respond, turn it off, wait ten seconds, then
turn it on again.
As a part of the regular startup process, a program to check the disk
status runs automatically. When the checks are finished, Windows
starts.
Important If your notebook does not turn off immediately, complete
the following steps until the notebook turns off:
1 Press and hold the power button for about five seconds,
then release it.
2 Unplug the power cord and remove the batteries for
more than 10 seconds.
