Is is possible to cause an AT compatable with the C&T chipset to perform a reset by poking at the keyboard controller? I think I remember reading that one of the I/O lines from the keyboard controller is routed to the reset logic. I know that one of the lines is used for turbo mode switching. I have a friend that is writing code that runs in protected mode and wants a fast way to reboot PC-DOS from his software. Thanks in advance. -------------------------------------------------------------------- J.
