In order to use memory in a more efficient way, you are recommended to exit a program when it is
not desired any longer.
Warning: Always remember to save data or settings before you exit a program.
START > SETTINGS > SYSTEM TAB AND TAP THE MEMORY ICON
Go to Start > Settings > System tab and select Memory . In the Running Programs tab, select a
program that you do not want to use any more and tap [Stop]. Alternatively, you may select to stop
all the programs that are running.
2.5 SYSTEM RESET
Reset the mobile computer when it stops responding to input.
Software Reset: Simply press the [Reset] button.
Hardware Reset: Press the [Reset] button and the [Power] key at the same time.
Warning: Never perform a hardware reset unless a software reset cannot solve your
problems.
2.5.1 SOFTWARE RESET (WARM REBOOT)
A software reset, also known as a warm boot, will restart the mobile computer and keep all the
saved files. To perform a software reset, use the stylus to press the [Reset] button. During
operation, the removal of main battery will start a software reset too.
Warning: Data loss may occur when files are not properly closed before a software reset.
2.5.2 HARDWARE RESET (COLD REBOOT)
A hardware reset, also known as a cold boot, will restart the mobile computer too. However, it
performs a full restore of the mobile computer to its factory settings and initializes SDRAM. To
perform a hardware reset, press the [Power] key and [Reset] button at the same time. Data and
program files stored in SDRAM will be erased after a hardware reset. But you can restore data that
is previously synchronized with your computer by performing an ActiveSync operation. Alternatively,
you can restore data using the
Backup Utility program if a backup job is carried out periodically.
Warning: Only the files stored in the Flash File System are retained during a hardware reset.
