This is simply the process of actually shutting down the computer and the restarting it. DO NOT select the restart option as this does not entirely do the same thing.

A "Cold Boot" is the process of turning on a computer when it is turned off. This is also called a Hard Boot. A "Warm Boot" is restarting the system using the software provided on the computer.
Simply put, it's pushing the button to turn the computer on when it's off.

to perform a cold boot: press and hold the power button until the system turns off and then wait for a moment or two and then power up the system (turn back on) :)

um.. start, shut down.
to hard boot you hit ctrl/alt/delete at the same time twice and it will restart you computer. DO NOT DO THIS if you have unsaved work.
hold in the button on your CPU for about 5 seconds

when you first turn on your computer that is called cold start. turning it off and back on again is called rebooting or restarting. you can also do a warm restart which resets all your windows default settings without completely turning off your computer

Press the power button on your tower (modem), which will either turn it off or on.

Turn power off then on again. [Start] -> Shut Down -> shut down (or turn off). Then you turn it on again by pushing the power button
