When the “Shut Down Windows” dialog box
appears, select the “Restart the Computer” option,
then press the “Yes” button.
This is the preferred method for restarting your
computer (assuming your system is working
normally), because it allows Windows 95 to save
configuration information and shut down in an
orderly manner before it restarts. However, if your
system has become erratic or nonresponsive (i.e.,
“crashed”), you should:
•
Press <Ctrl+Alt+Del> twice to perform a warm (or soft)
boot. A warm boot clears system memory and restarts
the computer.
•
If the computer still does not respond, you must do a
cold (or hard) boot: press the power button to turn the
power off, wait ten seconds, then press the power button
again to turn the power on. If a password has been
assigned, you will be required to enter it.
When you restart the system, you lose any data that you
have not saved.
