Resetting the server

If your server does not respond to keyboard or mouse input, you may have
to close programs that are not responding. If closing unresponsive programs
does not restore your server to normal operation, you may have to reset the
server.

To close unresponsive programs and reset the server in Windows NT:

1

Press C

TRL

+A

LT

+D

EL

. A window opens that lets you close a program that

is not responding.

2

Click

Task Manager

, then select the program that is not responding.

3

Close the program by clicking

End Task

.

4

If the server does not respond, press the reset button to restart the server.

As a part of the regular startup process, a program to check the disk status
runs automatically. When the checks are finished, Windows starts.

Important

For other operating systems, such as Windows 2000 or
Novell Netware, refer to the appropriate operating system
software manual for specific instructions.
