Re: Rebooting PC automatically when it hangs?

[andy.powell@xxxxxxx]

Mark,

Is this a win95/8 PC.. If so this is a known 'feature'. After a few days
things start to go awry.  You could always schedule a shutdown/restart at
say 3am (when most people are in bed - except the bad guys... tho. if
they've been watching the house they'd probably assume someone was in...

You can get 'heartbeat' boards that talk to a small app. in the system
tray or run as a service that will automatically reboot is the app.
doesn't respond.

Subject:        [ukha_d] Rebooting PC automatically when it hangs?


However, late last week the emails stopped.  He rang a neighbour (who
holds
a key) and got them to reboot his PC.  Things were OK for another few days
but the email has stopped again.

The HA PC is an AT case and motherboard so I assume a simple appliance
module would give the ability to turn it off and on.  What I want to know
is
does anyone have a clever system that automatically detect that the HA PC
has hung and reboot it?
