Hi,
There are a couple of options in the BIOS. There is a "reboot the box 
if the bios does not post within 6min" as well as "Fire the watchdog 
if the dog has not been patted after 5,10 or 15min after the BIOS 
post.   I tried all combinations without luck. If I have the "reboot 
after x min post post", the box will reboot on its own.
