When I talk to someone from tech support, and they tell me to change
something ,they usually say I have to restart the computer. They say to
press the reset button ,sometimes press alt-ctrl-del twice and sometimes
they say it has to be a complete shut down for ten seconds (or more).
Can someone explain the difference between the three  restart methods
and why one would be better (or necessary) in any given circumstances.
