Hi,
My system: IBM Pentium 100 / 48MB RAM / Samsung Syncmaster 14NE / MSDOS 6.22 / Soundblaster AWE64 / Cirrus Logic 1MB / 640MB HD + CDROM.
I'm searching a tsr program to reset with a customized key combination or mouse may be. Because many old games (CGA-EGA)
don't have the option to quit them and the CTRL+ALT+DEL don't work. So it's a pain to shutdown the pc, wait a few seconds
and power on again. Constantly on/off/on/off.... it's no good to hardware.
Thanks.

So you're looking for an utility to soft-reset the PC ?
I know of ones like boot.com, reboot.com, etc.

But they all have to be executed from the command line.
I'm not aware of any with a hot-key ability.

I'm curious, are you, by any chance, running EMM386 ?
I think there was a switch to allow CTRL+ALT+DEL to function.
