Reboot Functions
There are several methods, v ia Kernel I/O Control functions, that an ap-
plication program can use to force the 700 Series Computer to reboot.

performed. The contents of the Windows CE RAM-based object store are
discarded. See page 249.

This function is supported on the 700 Series Computers. It performs a
warm boot of the system, preser ving the object store. See page 249.
