you could use this command line and the only thing that you need to have is rundll (32) or just the plain one. Once you have made sure that you have this you could paste this command in and use the shell command in turbo C and paste : C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL.exe user.exe,ExitWindowsExec
please note that this should be put in one line. compile the program and you will be able to reboot your machine. if this fails email me and i will send you a small program i did in visual basic 6. PS. make sure you have vbrun60.dll for this though.
