I broke the debugger...

I'm working on a TWR-K55F180M board playing with FreeRtos and the watchdog timer.  I seem to have gotten the board into a state I cannot recover from.  When I try to start debugging, I get the following message: "arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe has stopped working".  If I reset the board, a previously successful piece of code that uses the watchdog runs.  Since the watchdog config can only be written once, the debugger can't turn it off.  How do I keep my old code from running and initializing the watchdog?

Are you sure you do not have any wrong breakpoints set? Try removing all breakpoints, see Failed to Debug with GDB: Breakpoints or Expressions on non-existing Locations | MCU on Eclipse 

I hope this helps,

Thanks.  I have it working now, but I'm not exactly sure what I did to get going again.  I did try your suggestion, and that might have been what fixed the problem, but it was not an immediate resolution.  I was flailing around trying all sorts of things and then without knowing exactly why it started working again.
