There are two ways to reset the computer:

If you are using MS-DOS, hold down

Ctrl

and

Alt

and

press the

Del

key. The screen goes blank for a moment

and then the computer should reload MS-DOS. If it

doesn’t, try the next method.

Press

the

RESET

button on the front panel. This method

works even when the computer does not respond to your

keyboard entries.

If resetting the computer does not correct the problem, you
probably need to turn it off and reboot it. Remove any
diskette(s) from the diskette drive(s). Turn off the computer

and wait five seconds. If you do not have a hard disk, insert

the Startup diskette in drive A. Then turn on the computer.

Using a Password

If you set a password when you ran the SETUP program, you
must enter it every time you turn on the computer or press
the

RESET

button. Follow these steps to use your password:

1.

If you do not have a hard disk, insert your Startup

diskette in drive A.

2. Turn on the computer or press

RESET.

After the computer

completes its memory test, the screen displays the
following prompt:

Enter Password :

3. Type your password at the prompt. The screen does not

display the characters you

type.

Then press

Enter.

After you type the password correctly and press

Enter, you

see

the

Press <Del> to start SETUP

prompt. If you do not

press

Del,

the computer loads MS-DOS and displays the

MS-DOS command prompt.
