PCI reset on soft boot

[Jeff Dahlin <JDahlin@appiangraphics.com>]

I apologize first for bringing up an OS dependant issue, but I have not been
able to find this out through other channels.

On some PC systems that we are working with we have seen no reset on the PCI
bus when a soft boot (Ctrl-Alt-Del) occurs.  This tends to wreak havoc with
our board since our device ends up in an unknown state when the boot ROM
executes.  

Does anyone know of a requirement (PCI or otherwise) for a system to issue a
reset at times other than power up?

Thanks,
