This provides a warm start so that you can recover from a fatal crash without turning your machine off & thus losing what's in memory. I've known others, however, who simply shorted the RESET line to ground (active low as I recall). They haven't had any problems, but I wouldn't hold the switch down too long if I had that configuration on my machine. The back of your PRG will have a circuit which you can modify if you want to do this. Their junk is for power up, but can be changed a bit. Just trace the RESET line back out & notice where it triggers it. A. Ray Miller Univ Illinois
