The supported chips can be found on a variety of motherboards.  I have
especially seen it on SuperMicro.  Some of these (like X8DT3) provide
a jumper to set whether the watchdog would trigger an NMI or a reset 
(or be disabled).  Some others only distinguish between disabled and
reset.

It's been tested on at least SM X7SPA-HF, H8QM8 and X8DT3 etc.
