  • In the Apple IIe and IIc, the reboot hotkey was Open Apple + Control + Reset. I don't remember what it was on a IIgs since I didn't have one of my own (I always wanted to though), but I guess you can try Command + Control + Reset.

  • FYI...

    The IIGS used an Ensoniq 5503 Digital Oscillator Chip with 64K dedicated RAM (wavetable music synthesis), not a Yamaha FM chip.

    ProDOS 16 was not a true 16-bit OS. It was replaced by GS/OS, with the final release found in System 6.0.1 in 1993. It * vastly * speed up load times, graphical redraws on screen and offered features very similar to MacOS 7.

  • You would not have any trouble with disk swapping if you had a SCSI II card and a Hard Disk Drive. I have them fairly inexpensively, at some only Apple II hardware dealers.

  • Holding the Option (aka Solid-Apple) key yields the reset to defaults menu. It's the Command (aka Open-Apple) key that just restarts. (Holding both initiates the system test.)

    In any case, it's necessary to hold them for a moment after releasing Ctrl or Reset, as the system needs a chance to look at them during its reset routine. That trips people up sometimes; they release them all at once, and only get a warm reset.

  • jescis0: Yes, the Option key is equivalent to the Closed Apple key, and the Command key (the cloverleaf symbol) is equivalent to Open Apple. Most keyboards have both symbols on each key.

  • that's for the Apple IIe or less. The Apple IIGS uses an option button in replacement to the closed(black) Apple key. and thus for the Apple IIGS it's control+option key+the power/arrow key on the top of the keyboard next to the Apple logo :)

  • The restart command is Ctrl-Open Apple-Reset.

    (Of the two Apple logo keys, "Open Apple" is the one that is just an outline, as opposed to "Closed Apple", which is filled in black.)
