To reset the computer
Occasionally, you may find that Windows or the computer has stopped responding, and
will not let you turn the computer off. If this happens, try the following in the order listed.
1. If possible, shut down Windows: press CTRL+ALT+DEL, then click Shut Down.
2. Slide and hold the power button for 4 seconds, until the display shuts down, then
press the blue sleep button to restart.
–or, if this fails–
Insert a straightened paper clip into the system-off switch on the right side of the
computer, then press the blue sleep button to restart.
