We consider stochastic approximation algorithms with Markovian dynamics as introduced in Benveniste, Métivier and Priouret in their 1990 book. Using a resetting mechanism with a fairly arbitrary truncation domain, the algorithm is shown to converge to the unique stationary point of the associated ODE with probability one. A self-contained outline to the basic technical aspects of the BMP theory will be also given
