Older computers have a reset button that can be pressed to restart the computer and recover from a lock-up. Newer computers no longer have a reset button. To restart you have to turn off the computer by holding the power button on the computer case in for five or ten seconds. Wait about thirty seconds before pressing the power button on the front of the computer to restart.
