The Wallstreet has no hard reset switch, so that key combination does the job.
As others have said, you probably just need to re-seat the processor module. I've had similar symptoms after overclocking a board too much, or forgetting to push it all the way back into the slot. If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to track down a replacement module on eBay. Most of them are for the Series II machines, but there must be some Series I modules floating around somewhere.
