I get that Aaron, but he asked how to do the RESET. He's backing up his data
before he does it, so I assumed he knows what it does. It's not like he said
he's having weird glitches and asked a generic "what should I do?" He
specifically asked how to do the RESET after backing up his data, and I
answered that question.

The more appropriate computer analogy would be a computer user saying
they've backed up their computer and asking "how do I reformat my hard drive
for a fresh install of Windows?"

It's good that there are other troubleshooting steps to try, though - thanks
for sharing them. :D
