1. Go to the Start Screen
2. Click on the power icon at the top right
3. Hold down shift and click restart.
4. Let go of shift when you see the boot screen.

Sorry to say but didnt understand when you say Go to start screen..The only thing I can do is power on ...no use even if I am pressing F8 or Shift F8.It then takes me to the password screen with my user.I see a power button icon .no use even if I hold it for a new while. So gave password and then it says welcome and then after sometime, a black screen with a mouse pointer appears..that's what is happening. Please help.

You can do the same thing with shut down. Just hold shift and click on it.
