Okay, trying to see the purpose of this button ? Why have an NMI button to break into DDB when you can just use CTRL-ALT-ESC ? - aW 0n Tue, Nov 16, 2004 at 01:43:35AM +0100, Matthias Andree wrote: "Wilkinson, Alex" <alex.wilkinson@dsto.defence.gov.au> writes: > Robert, what is an NMI button ? A button - usually on server and high-availability hardware, next to the RESET button. NMI is a non-maskable interrupt, i. e. one that software cannot opt out of. The serious part of this mail ends in this line.
