If Windows or your computer stops responding, you can reset the computer and restart
Windows.
1. If possible, shut down Windows: click Start, Shut Down, Shut down (Windows 98 or
2000) or Start, Turn Off Computer, Turn Off (Windows XP).
–or, if this fails–
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL, then click Shut Down.
2. If the computer does not shut down, slide and hold the power switch for five seconds,
then release it.
3. If the computer still does not shut down, insert a pin or straightened paper clip into
the system-off switch on the left side of the computer, underneath the PC card eject
buttons.
4. After the computer shuts down, press the blue standby button to turn the computer on
again.
