watchdogd fails to run, patting the dog is a no go.
I'm using an Asus F2A85-M motherboard, AM2 cpu and onboard graphics.
I'm not sure what the watchdog's purpose is, nor if it's an Intel specific feature.
I have not purchased an Intel based system since my 486SX-25 days, and so I'm a bit at a loss for words/ideas. (It's a long story, but it involves tied selling with MS, and I hold a looooong grudge)
I'm wondering about the purpose of watchdogd, and if there is a serious issue with not having it run.
It would be nice to switch to an Intel board/cpu/Ecc system, but that carries an additional $550+ pricetag over what I have available at the moment (in stock car terms it's "run whatcha brung, ya ain't gonna win with the car you WISH you had").
I'm hoping it's just a bios config issue, but I'm prepared to face the music if need be.
