In some cases where the computer completely stops responding, it
may be necessary to perform a cold boot. Because cold booting may
result in data loss, only use this method if all other recovery methods
have failed.
Note: Cold booting the CN50 does not guarantee that cached disk
data will be saved, so transactional data may be lost during the reset.
All other data is preserved.
To cold boot your CN50
1 Remove the battery pack from the CN50 and wait 30 seconds.
2 Reinsert the battery pack and press
If the CN50 does not warm boot or cold boot, you may need to
perform a clean boot. When you clean boot the CN50, the CN50 only
loads files and applications that are absolutely required by the
operating system. Perform a clean boot to get the CN50 up and
running so that you can run diagnostic tests to troubleshoot the
normal boot process.
The clean boot process erases the CN50 memory, including all
applications and data files in the object store. To preserve
applications through a clean boot, store them in the Flash File
Store. For more information, see
