<div>Actually.... It is a COLD REBOOT and
to do this on a laptop you need to UNPLUG the charger/adapter,
REMOVE the battery, Press pwr button for abt 20 sec or so. (This
drains any residual voltage from the capacitors within the unit)<br>
Then put battery back in, re-attach your charger. A laptop is
never fully OFF until you do this and it is the way to hard-reset
the HARDWARE.<br>
<br>
Good luck!<div><div class="h5"><br>

<div dir="ltr">with my computer it won't allow you to turn it back
on unless you plug it in,take out the battery, press the power
button for like 30 seconds. Then when you press the button again
it will turn back on. My question was really related to to how I
turned the computer off,stuck it in my bag, and then went to
flagstaff. Then when I got there the computer would not turn on
as the sesor had been tripped. My question was really whether
the sensor could be trpped when the computer was off.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Yes, most laptops have a temperature sensor
that will shut them down if they get to hot, but they will
allow you to turn it back on once it cools down again. I
have never seen one the is permanently shutdown because of
that unless you got it hot enough to melt the circuits
inside.<br>

<div dir="ltr">you know the the overtemp gauge that
won't allow a laptop to start if it is tripped?
am I wrong in my discovery that it can be tripped
even while the computer is off?<br clear="all">
