Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method for resetting a processor and a computer device. The method includes: obtaining an image file corresponding to a coprocessor by a first component of the computer device, and loading the image file into a reference space in a RAM by the first component; loading the image file stored in the reference space into a specific space corresponding to the coprocessor by a second component of the computer device and validating the image file stored in the specific space by the second component in response to determining that the coprocessor needs to be reset; and resetting the coprocessor by the second component based on the image file stored in the specific space in response to the second component determining that the image file stored in the specific space is valid.
