Abstract
A system and method for a computing device having a processor, a memory module including volatile memory for random access memory (RAM), and an integrated circuit to intercept an error signal from the processor, the intercept delaying a system shutdown of the computing device. Firmware is executed by the processor to copy contents of the volatile memory to a non-volatile memory during the delay of the system shutdown.
