Question about 'Windows says it's "Dangerously Low on System Resources"'

I have a question about Windows says it's "Dangerously Low on System Resources":

Solution suggested is "Restart Windows". Unclear of meaning. Assume this does not mean Reinstall, how do you Restart--other than Shut Down/LogOn? Thanks for help. RO

Restart, means just that. Start - Shutdown - choose restart. That's not a permanent 
solution, though. If your system's continually running low on resources, trim down 
your startups. Remove unnecessary applications from starting when Windows loads. 
Most programs can be started as needed. 

To do so, first check in the Options/preferences of the programs. Open each and go 
through the settings. Check whether there's a choice to turn off the "tray" or "run 
at startup". Make the selection you want. The settings in the programs will override, 
what's selected in msconfig.

Some applications don't give you an option. Those you can uncheck in msconfig under 
the startup tab. For a description of startup entries, check this tasklist:
