Abstract:
A restoration device for restoring a system when the BIOS falls in a stall failure includes a first watchdog timer and a second watchdog timer, a setter for setting timer values respectively in the first watchdog timer and in the second watchdog timer, a suspender for suspending the decrement of the timer value of the first watchdog timer when the BIOS is started and also execution of a BIOS process is started, a switch for switching the BIOS data region for starting when the timer value of the first watchdog timer becomes equal to 0 or a prescribed number, a resetter for resetting the system when the timer value of the first watchdog timer becomes equal to 0 or a prescribed number, a suspender for suspending the decrement of the timer value of the second watchdog timer when the BIOS of the system starts and a resetter for resetting the system when the timer value of the second watchdog timer becomes equal to 0 or a prescribed number.
