reset pc

[Frank]

Hello all,
is there a way to reboot my PC with a c# command? I don't mean 'shutdown -s'
or some other command. I mean a hard interrupt (INTxx), like pushing the
resetbutton on my PC.

Thanks for your help
Frank

Frank,

I use a class written by Mentalis in my program, it allows me to shutdown,
restart, logoff etc.

I believe I downloaded it from http://www.mentalis.org/ but if you can't
find it there, email me, and i'll send you my class with it in.

Regards,

James.

I imagine that the INTxx will only be allowed from a device driver. If it
were possible to do it from a user program, any runaway program would be
able to crash the system, which is not desirable in a well-behaved operating
system.

May I ask why you want to do that? It sounds like very drastic to me

Hello,
yes, if an INTxx is possible all kinds of virusprograms could do unwanted
stuff. But I can always have a look round, can't I?
Why do I need it? I have problems with remote servers that do not respond to
a shutdown, so maybe a hard reset is a solution.
So if there is some way to do an INTxx I would like to know.

Been there... a different solution (that doesn't depend on *anything*
working on the server) is a networked power switch, and a BIOS that
auto-ons when the power comes back.

Or, use "Robotics Studio" (May CTP now available) to build yourself a
scutter with access to the big red button ;-p
