I am not sure exactly why you are saying that the normal way is to 
reset the CUDA when I could not find any reference to having to do that 
in any of the literature that came with either my 800MHz or my 1GHz 
Sonnet upgrades.

What is the reason for doing that, if any?

Everything that I have read indicates to me that resetting the CUDA is 
a "last ditch effort" to correct some problem that you cannot resolve 
by zapping the PRAM or rebuilding the desktop file.
