Resetting the server
If your server does not respond to keyboard or mouse input, you may have
to close programs that are not responding. If closing unresponsive programs
does not restore your server to normal operation, you may have to perform
a forced shut down and restart the server.
To close unresponsive programs and shut down the server in
Windows NT:
1
Press C
TRL
+A
LT
+D
EL
. A window opens that lets you close a program that
is not responding.
2
Click
Task Manager
, then select the program that is not responding.
3 Close the program by clicking
End Task
.

If the server does not respond, press and hold the power button for four
seconds to force the server to shut down.

Turn the server back on.
As a part of the regular startup process, a program to check the disk status
runs automatically. When the checks are finished, Windows starts.
Important For other operating systems, such as Windows 2000 or
Novell Netware, refer to the appropriate operating system
software manual for specific instructions.
