-=PCTechTalk=- Fw: Re: Password.

    Hi Glo.    Thanks for the info .   What I do when I have a freeze up or
the computer is acting up ,  I press the on /off button on the computer and
hold it in for 7 seconds, the screen goes black , I then release the button
and wait one minute then press the on/off button again to switch the
computer on again and wait till it loads, it usually runs Scan Disc
automatically and every thing usually goes back to normal.   I guess that is
a Cold Boot ,  huh  ??     Lionel.
