To the OP, please provide at first an output from those commands: sysctl dev.cpu sysctl dev.powernow sysctl dev.acpi_throttle If there is something from both dev.powernow and dev.acpi_throttle, please check what driver is actually faulty by disabling one. For exemple, putting that line: hint.acpi_throttle.0.disabled="1" onto /boot/loader.conf will disable acpi_throttle. The same apply for powernow: hint.powernow.0.disabled="1" Note that a verbose dmesg (boot -v) might be helpful also. Cheers, -- Bruno Ducrot -- Which is worse: ignorance or apathy? -- Don't know. Don't care.
