Turning Off Your Computer
If your operating system is Windows 95, turn off
your computer by performing the shutdown
procedure described in this section. Otherwise,
you may lose data.
To turn off the computer in Windows 95:
1. Click the Start button on the taskbar. A pop-up menu
appears.
2. Click Shut Down.
3. Select Shut down the computer?
4. Click the Yes button. The computer turns off.
Restarting Your Computer
You may need to restart (reboot) your computer when installing
hardware or software or if the computer does not respond to
your input. A warm (or soft) boot prompts you to save your files,
turns off the computer, and then restarts the computer. A cold
boot turns off the computer without saving your files.
Do not perform a cold boot unless your
keyboard and touchpad have no effect and you
cannot perform a warm boot.
When you perform a cold boot, you lose data
unless it was saved to a storage medium.

1. Click the Start button on the taskbar.
2. Click Shut Down.
3. Select Restart the Computer.
4. Click the Yes button.
