Cold Reset 

A cold (hard) reset is a complete reset of the device in which all 
applications are forcibly closed and working RAM and files are 
cleared. 
 

Reason to Cold Reset 

Press the <Reset> button with FN Key when the WindowsCE.Net 
operating system (OS) locks up and the Warm reset command does 
work. 
 

Cold Reset Procedure 

To perform a cold (hard) reset, press the Reset Button with FN key. 
 
You always attempt a Soft (warm) reset before initiating (cold) 
reset. Once you initiate a hard reset, all applications are forcibly 
closed and working RAM and files are cleared. 
 
After Cold Reset 
When a device goes through the cold reset sequence, it clears the 
working RAM and initializes the file system. You will lose any 
applications and data which are not stored in persistent flash 
memory “DiskOnChip”. 
• The splash screen will appear shortly. 
• You must recalibrate the touch screen, if you need. 
• The desktop appears with the application shortcuts on the screen. 
• The custom settings in the registry are persistent. 
• Any RF Network PC Card connects to the network system.
