Hold the button down for a second or two and release. The Power-
On Self Test (POST) runs automatically.
After the POST is completed, the computer reads the operating
system from the hard disk drive into computer memory (this is
commonly referred to as “booting” a computer). If your OS
(Operating System such as Windows XP…. etc) is installed, it
should start automatically.
To turn the notebook off, save your work and close all open
applications, click on Start, then Shut Down and select Shut
down the computer

and click "Yes" or press the power button for

4-6 seconds.
