   Placing a value into the CMOS registers doesn't reboot the system.  It   
   only partially sets the type of reboot.   
      
   Rebooting a PC is a two-part process.  The first part controls the type   
   of machine reboot, e.g., selects warm or cold.  The second part causes   
   the reboot.   
      
   There are two values, and possibly a bit, that controls the type of   
   BIOS reboot, e.g., warm or cold.  The two values are for the CMOS   
   shutdown byte and BDA POST reset flag.  IIRC, you must set both of   
   these, except possibly only one is needed for cold reboot.  For cold   
   boot, these are both zero, i.e., BDA 40:72h.  These were in the second   
   two links.  You should also clear the system flag bit for some machines.   
      
   There are numerous methods which causes a reboot, e.g., LIDT triple   
   fault, IBM 8042 keyboard controller, IBM PS/2 fast reset, Intel PCI   
   chipset reset, ...  These were in the first two links.
