ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for detecting and responding to a system error. To detect the system error, a protected mode of operation is activated in a processing system. While the protected mode of operation is activated, the processing system is queried to determine whether a system error has occurred. If the system error is determined to have occurred, the system error is responded to based on a fault tolerance policy.
