Well, if the timer doesn't work, then the NMI watchdog will trigger. So it's "supposed" to happen in the sense that yeah, it's kind of expected, but it's really bsically just a secondary issue. If the timer worked properly, you'd never see it.
So it's just fallout from the original problem you have, and not interesting in itself.
