Dell laptop has no reset button.

Dell laptop has no reset button. In Ulead Photo Impact, if you alter an object size from 50 to, say, 50000 it tries to make the object that size in the background. This involves burning 200% CPU time at real time priority for the rest of eternity. The laptop refuses to log off, hibernate or switch off the laptop is brought to it's knees (ha ha). A windows pc needs a reset button like it needs a hard disk.

Had to pull the power and the battery.
