2.3 Resetting Your MDA Touch Plus
Soft reset
Occasionally, you may need to reset your device. A soft (or normal) reset
of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all
active programs. This can be useful when your device is running slower
than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also
necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed
when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost.
To perform a soft reset
Remove the back cover and then
with the stylus, press the RESET
button found at the left side of your
device. Your device restarts and
displays the Today screen.

Hard reset
You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard
reset should be performed only if a normal reset does not solve a system
problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings -- the
way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you
installed, data you entered, and settings you customized on your device will
be lost. Only Windows Mobile® software and other pre-installed programs
will remain.
