Hi I've been working on a word document off my laptop when the screen froze
and all controls went unresponsive. I am currently running xp home edition
and I would like to be able to reboot without losing my progress. If I lose
my document it will take me several hours to catch up. The shortcuts I've
already tried are ctrl+alt+delete and alt+tab with neither working. Is my
only solution to take a picture of the screen with a camera?

Have you got the Tools | Options > Save > Autorecover checked. I
believe it is by default. And if was checked then the document would
automatically be recovered to some extent when you restart.

But a screen pic by camera would be a good idea.

Save early & save often - just like a supposed mantra of one of our
regions which said "Vote early, vote often"..
