HP iPAQ h2200 Pocket PC - How do I Perform a Hard ("Full") Reset?
Perform a hard reset when you want to clear all settings,
programs, and data from RAM (Random Access Memory,
where data and programs you have loaded are stored).
If the battery installed in your iPAQ Pocket PC discharges
completely, your Pocket PC will operate as if a hard reset had
been performed once the battery has been recharged.
| CAUTION:
|
If you perform a hard reset, your iPAQ Pocket PC returns
to it's default settings and loses all information (files, settings, etc.) that
is not recorded in ROM. |
A hard reset deactivates the battery. The power button does not
function until the battery is reactivated.
To perform a hard reset:
Press and hold Application
Buttons 1 (Calendar) and 4
(iTask) on the front of the unit and, at the same time, use the
stylus to press the Reset
button on the back of your iPAQ
Pocket PC.
