Why not just increment a VAR with a timer. When a Keep Alive is received the VAR drops back to zero. If the VAR reaches "X" then re-boot.
No ASM if PBP interrupts are used.

yes that's the basic idea in the code. the core code like that seems to be the easy part - how are you going to;
1. listen to a USB port for certain event? what will the event look like, what will the PICBASIC code look like?
2. Write a program in Windows(7) that does the PC side of sending that 'event' down the USB cable which ultimately resets the watchdog timer etc.

This might help you out.

USBIN on the MCU side. A simple program on the PC to send data.
