The Reset is an important function of your computer system,
and is used, for example, when the computer is blocked or
is not accepting commands from the keyboard.
When a Reset is made, all the data stored in the system's
memory are lost. All memories, registers, etc., are set to
zero, and the operating system is reloaded.
Once the operating system has been successfully loaded, a
Reset is made by pressing the key combination CTRl + AlT +
DEL. This is called a Software Reset.
If the operating system has not been loaded successfully,
or if for any reason the system is not accepting commands
from the keyboard, a system reset can only be performed by
switching OFF and ON (this is called a Hardware Reset).
IMPORTANT: Both types of Reset should be used carefully
since all data stored in your system memory will be lost
after a Reset.
