Epson Apex, User Manual

WARNING
Do not reset the computer simply to exit a program. Some
application programs classify and store new data when you exit
the program. If you reset the computer without properly exiting
the program, you may lose data.
To reset the computer, hold down
Ctrl
and
Alt
and press
Del
(on the numeric keypad at the right of the keyboard). The
screen is blank for a moment, then MS-DOS is loaded from the
diskette in drive A or from drive C.
If this does not correct the problem, remove any diskettes from
the disk drives. Turn off the computer. Wait for five seconds,
then turn off the monitor and any peripherals. Wait for another
five seconds, then turn the computer, monitor, and peripherals
on again.
Turning Off the Computer
Normally, when you are through working with an application
program, you save your data, exit the program, and remove all
diskettes from the disk drives.
If you are using an Apex Plus 20, run the HDSIT program to
position the hard disk drive heads. Running HDSIT moves the
read/write heads away from the recording area. See “Preparing
the hard disk for moving” in this chapter.
Turn off the computer first, then turn off the monitor and any
peripherals.
