OH Gosh now all of the sudden it automagically works!  How could that happen?

Last night I did  a few restarts on the PC after installing, and OO would not start up.  Then I just shut down the PC completely and went to bed - 
woke up this am, turned on PC and then tried starting once more (after replying to all the helpful advice here :)) and now all OO apps are working.

Is there a difference between restarting PC and completely shutting down as far as what's considered a reboot?   Isn't a "restart" same as a "reboot" in Linux?
