An information processing apparatus and method capable of detecting an abnormal manipulation performed by an operator to a system; storing the state of a calculating unit in a memory in conformity with the result of such detection; turning off a power supply under control in conformity with the result of the detection; and displaying a message to inform the operator of the abnormal manipulation when the power supply is turned on again after the turn-off thereof. The apparatus and method further capable of confirming the connection state of a peripheral device when the power supply is turned on again; in response to a detection that the connection state of the peripheral device is not the same as that immediately before the turn-off of the power supply, outputting a message which instructs the operator to connect the peripheral device in the former state immediately before the turn-off; and in response to a detection that the peripheral device has been connected in the former state, resuming the predetermined posterior process with regard to the abnormal manipulation.
