You can write a Windows DLL and use JNI to reboot the system. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sysinfo/base/how_to_shut_down_the_system.asp- Saish

Hi!! i think u can do it without the need for using JNI. The code below works fine on win xp and above. There may be similar commands for win 98 & ME. Try googling for restarting command on win 98.

Use JOptionPane class to display the msg box u asked.

Process p=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("shutdown /s /t 00");

Use the "shutdown /r" for restarting.
