Hello, I am remotely managing a computer (that doesnt support the good stuff like AMT etc) the issue is that sometimes the OS hangs and the PC freezes.
At this point using console commands is useless nothing will be done.
One needs to go to the physical location of the computer and hard shutdown it by holding the physical shutdown button for a few seconds or pressing the reset button.
So I thought of cellphones being used to triger bombs remotely by calling the cellphone it then sends an electrical charge and the bomp explodes.
I kinda wanna do the same thing but instead of sending an electrical charge I want just to short the motherboards poweron/off pins (2 pins) and/or the reset pins.
Like for example by sending an sms to the device e.g "1" for shortening the shutdown pins for a few seconds then do nothing for a few seconds then short again for a second (to boot again) and "2" for shortening the reset pins
I know basic sciences and I'm a PC tinkerer and soldered a few doohickies but I am in no way experienced or an engineer (I am able to execute verbose instructions though )
I dare to believe that this project is easy enough to be described in 10 lines of text or so (e.g what specific parts to buy etc) could you help me out because I dont know where to source the stuff needed nor am I sure what exactly I need (I mean I probably dont need a cellphone just a pcb with a sim tray and basic logic preinstalled to operate the simcard and then something like a relay or whatever to get triggered by my incoming messages and short the pins accordingly)
Could you pretty please guide me a little bit? thanks
