your tablet PC.

1 Press the Security button . For more information, see “Button panel”
on page 3.
-OR-
On the keyboard, press C
TRL+ALT+DEL.

not responding.
3 Tap the program that is not responding.

it on again.

runs automatically. When the checks are finished, Windows starts.

the following steps until the tablet PC turns off:
