Hardware watchdogs on asus motherboard?
I have a pc with an asus a8n-sli deluxe and a amd athlon 64 3500+ and i have been reading on watchdog solutions, both hardware and software, and from what i've read there are some motherboards\processors with watchdog circuits included that can be used from *nix. But i haven't been able to discover if such a thing exists that can bo used on my machine.
I was also unable to understand if a software solution is needed if a hardware one is available.
Can anyone give me some pointers on this, plz?
Thanks in advance.
