- Hi! We are in great need of a plug-in board that will reset our 386
- based PC if the PC hangs. I imagine that this board would work by
- having the PC continually access it in some way, and if it hasn't been
- accessed in some defined period of time, it resets the computer. It also
- should have a serial port on it.
-
- This is for an instrument that will run unattended in the high arctic.
- Deadlines are fast approaching, and I've only received one reply from my
- previous posting (it wasn't quite what we needed). Any help would be
- greatly appreciated! Please email me at titus@phys.ucalgary.ca or post to
- this group. Thanks!!
