I could boot an old DOS 6.2 or whatever and try CTRL-ALT-DELETE. I think that is what you mean. I don't remember that actual command, although I'm sure there's a lot of third-party reboot commands... Some of which I'd like to see in the assembler code, myself. I'll just bet someone has an old MS-DOS BASIC program or assembler written in C, Pascal, or something, which could do a warm or cold reset. Billy
