| 1. Also known as restart, reboot is a term used to describe the process of restarting the computer or electronic device. Rebooting is sometimes necessary to recover from an error, re-initialize drivers, or hardware devices. A reboot may also occur automatically if the computer or hardware device encounters an error or is overloaded. If the computer is operating normally, the user should not simply press the reset button or power the computer off and on to reboot. Instead, restart the computer or shutdown the computer as required by your operating system.
- If the computer is rebooting / restarting by itself, please see document CH000605 for additional information and troubleshooting that can be done for this issue.
