1.)read your owners manual... that's how. i'll even give you a hint, it in between pages 3 and 5...
2.)no(but you would know that too if you read the 20 something page booklet they kindly gave you with your $250 purchase)
p.s.- i hope to god this is a joke

I get the same thing occasionally - my Wii freezes on a black screen immediately after I tell it to load a game disk, it loses the connection with the Wiimote and doesn't respond to the reset button. What I do is hold down the power button for a few seconds until the light goes red, then turn the Wii on again.

Best ways assuming the reset button isn't helping...
press and hold the power button for 5 secs or so until the power button light is red.
or unplug it

you are too helpful
it's like Jesus said, teach a man how to reboot his Wii and know what he's doing for a day, teach a man to check the instruction manual and know what to do for a lifetime.(this is in the scientologist's version of the way things went down)

 all too assuming of the following: - the member is literate (most likely)
- the Wii is brand new and came with a manual
- the manual is accessible - it could be misplace and saves much time to post here than to dig around.
if the manual is accessible, oh well.

Use the sacred method of the drop-kick.
That's what it says in the owners manual. That's why it is called a "manual".

well i assume that they are literate... since they posted here, and therefore if literacy was an issue our answers would be of no help unless we drew a picture

thats what Al Gore invented the internets for. haha

I do however think that Frummage's reccommendation is the most helpful though.
