Reset Key Sequence (Reboot)
Note: The <CTRL> + <ALT> + <DEL> function can be used to shut down a Microsoft
Windows application or reboot the computer. The keypress brings up the “Task
Manager” window (Windows XP).
To reboot the VX5 without turning the computer off, press
<CTRL> + <ALT> + <DEL>
and select Shut Down from the Task Manager window.
When the system is rebooted, Windows performs a controlled shutdown, closing any open
programs, before shutting down the Windows operating system. The current contents of RAM are
lost when rebooting. It is recommended to save any needed data and exit in an orderly fashion
from any running programs before rebooting.
When the VX5 is turned on or rebooted, the following settings are restored from flash memory
and are configured using BIOS Setup.
Note: Options in the Microsoft Windows Control Panel make access to the BIOS unnecessary
in many cases. Only those setting not controlled by Windows are listed below. For more
information on Windows settings, please refer to commercially available Windows
guides.
