Caution

Do not turn off the computer to stop a program or command

because the computer erases any data you did not save.

Resetting the Computer

Occasionally, you may want to clear the computer’s current

settings or its memory without turning it off. You can do this

by resetting the computer.

For example, if an error occurs and the computer does not

respond to your keyboard entries, you can reset it to reload

your operating system and try again. However, resetting erases

any data in memory that you have not saved; so reset only if

necessary.
