Psion Teklogix NETBOOK PRO Win CE Quick Start Guide
• Press the
Alt
key, then tap, to right-click.
Note:
If the screen doesn’t respond to your taps, you may
need to re-calibrate it. You can do this by holding
down the
On/Off
button for 3 seconds.
2.5 How To Reset The NETBOOK PRO
If you find that you cannot exit a program normally,
Alt
-tap
on the taskbar and select
Task Manager
from the context
menu. Select the task that appears to be unresponsive and
click on the
End Task
button.
If this does not work, or if your NETBOOK PRO appears to
have “locked up”, you can always perform a “soft reset”.
This should restart your NETBOOK PRO while preserving
most of your information. It is worth trying a soft reset if the
keys on the NETBOOK PRO do not appear to respond, or if
the NETBOOK PRO appears to switch on and you are sure
that the batteries are good, but the screen is otherwise blank.
It is possible, though unlikely, that performing a soft reset
after a program failure would cause the NETBOOK PRO to
lose the information in its internal storage; it could even pre-
vent the reset from working at all. If this happens, you will
have to perform a hard reset.
Important: A hard reset resets the NETBOOK PRO com-
pletely, and all information in internal storage
will be lost.
To perform a soft reset
:
Insert a short wire, such as an unfolded paper clip, into
the hole to the right of the right
Shift
key. Press down to
press the NETBOOK PRO’s reset switch.
It is also possible to perform a soft reset by holding
down the
Ctrl
,
Alt,
and
Delete
keys for three seconds.

After a soft reset, any changes to open files will be lost. Your
other files on the internal disk will almost always be safe.
To perform a hard reset
:
Remove all batteries and AC power.
Note:
Hard resetting the NETBOOK PRO will delete the
ActiveSync partnership on the NETBOOK PRO. You
may delete and re-create the partnership on the PC,
or create another partnership with a new name. Refer
to ActiveSync’s online help for more detail on this
operation.
