Resetting the Mobile Computer
If the mobile computer stops responding to input, reset it. There are two reset functions, warm boot
and cold boot. A warm boot restarts the mobile computer by closing all running programs. All data
that is not saved is lost.
A cold boot also restarts the mobile computer, but erases all stored records and entries from RAM. In
addition it returns formats, preferences and other settings to the factory default settings.
Perform a warm boot first. This restarts the mobile computer and saves all stored records and entries.
If the mobile computer still does not respond, perform a cold boot.
Performing a Warm Boot
Hold down the Power button for approximately five seconds. As soon as the mobile computer starts
to perform a warm boot release the Power button.
Or the warm boot command can be executed from the Programs menu, tap Start - Programs - Warm
Boot.
Files that remain open during a warm boot may not be retained.
