If a user turns on a computer that is currently turned off it is referred to as a?
It is commonly referred to as booting-up the computer.
Restarting the computer while it's powered on is called a cold boot?
No - a cold boot is starting the computer by switching it on. Re-starting an already running computer is a 'warm boot'.
The difference between a cold boot and warm boot?
A cold boot is done by completely powering down the computer to off and then starting the computer fresh. A warm boot is restarting the computer without powering the computer off.
A cold boot is initiated by?
Pushing the power button on the computer
What is cold and warm boot?
A cold boot occurs when the power supply is interrupted for any reason. A warm boot does not interrupt the power supply, which may result in parts of the hardware being left in an uninitialised state. When diagnosing hardware issues, a cold boot is recommended to ensure the boot is consistent. It is also best to allow at least 1 minute of inactivity to allow any residual currents to fully dissipate before restoring the power supply. A cold boot is initiated by shutting down the system from within the OS, or by holding and then releasing the reset button, or by switching the power off at source. A warm boot is initiated by restarting the system from within the OS. Hibernation is akin to a cold boot as power must be interrupted. However, the machine's hardware is initialised from the memory dump created during hibernation, thus restoring the system to the exact state it was in prior to hibernation (and thus speeding up the entire boot process). Suspension or sleep is neither a hot nor cold boot as only certain parts of the hardware are switched on and off to conserve energy. Although hardware returning from the sleep state needs to reinitialised to their previous state, the contents of memory remain active at all times, thus it is not considered a boot of any kind. A cold boot is when a computer initializes without having run for a while, hence, it's 'cold'. For example, when you turn on your computer in the morning when it has not been on since the previous day. A warm boot is when a computer restarts after running, while it's 'warm'.
What type of boot occurs when the computer is already on and you restart it without turning off the computer?
If you restart it in the menu with the mouse or keyboard then it's a "Soft" or normal reboot. If you have to restart with the power button (or restart button on older Macs) on the side of computer case then its a "Hard" reboot.

When you power up a computer by turning on the power on switch this is called a boot. If your computer is already on and you restart it this is called a boot?
If the computer is off the boot is called a cold boot or initial startup.If the computer is on the boot is called a warm boot or restart.
What is the different between a cold boot and a warm boot?
A cold boot refers to starting a computer that has been powered off. A warm boot is just restarting Windows.
What are the ways of booting?
Cold booting occurs when the electrical power (the switch button) on the system unit is turned and warm booting occurs when the computer system restart or reset without turning off the power.
What does it mean to cold boot a computer?
Turn it on when it is completely off.
A cold boot is initiated by?
Pushing the power button on the computer
What are the steps of booting?
"Cold boot" means that the computer must be turned off then when it is turned back on it will "cold boot". A computer can reboot without turning off the power but some internal devices do not reset if the power does not go off. "Cold boot" forces everything to be restarted fresh.
