Rebooting a computer through the menu option or the keystroke combination is sometimes referred to as a warm boot, perhaps because it is more gentle than the alternative cold boot (simply pressing the computer's power button once to turn it off and then again to turn it back on).

Warm booting is what the "Reebot" or the "Restart" button does. It means only shutting down the computer and immediately turning it on without the hardware checks done in normal "cold" booting up of the computer.
Cold booting is normally switching on your computer. It includes the POST, "power on self test". This test includes the hardware checks like "is the ram inserted", "is the hard disk connected." It basically starts the whole boot sequence from the beginning.
