Getting Error message while doing software reset.

Hi,

Processor : DM642
Tool      : CCS3.1

     While doing software reset from the CCS3.1, Previously it was working
properly and suddenly i am getting error message as 

Failed Software Reset: Error 0x00000024/-1147 Error during: Register,
Execution,  It appears that the target is being held in reset.  If this is
a multi-core system, the master CPU may not be releasing the DSP from
reset.  Please check your configuration in CCSetup and/or your GEL file to
ensure that nothing is blocking the DSP from being released from reset  
Sequence ID: 16 Error Code: -1147 Error Class: 0x00000024

and the CCS 3.1 hangs. Anyone has face this kind of problem, or what can
be the cause of this error and is there any solution for that?

Have you probed the reset line?  Perhaps something actually IS holding 
the device in reset.
