Linda,

No reset button is a common thing these days. I do
assume that the PC does have a power connection. If
so, it is probably just like the Dell on my desk here
at work: you have to hold the power switch in for
about 4 seconds in order to forcibly turn the power
off on the PC.

Hope that helps.
