open/close latch.

Resetting Your System

Occasionally, you may need to reset your system if you encounter
a hardware or software problem that locks up your laptop. Follow
these instructions to reset your system:

1.

From Windows 95, press <Ctrl+Alt+Del>.

Never turn your laptop off suddenly!
Instead, close all programs and use the
Windows 95 Shut Down command before
turning your laptop off.

Always wait at least 5 seconds after turning
the laptop off before turning it back on!
