On my configuration I have dual core intel xeon 30xx series with SMP and APIC kernel (i386 distribution). This issue appears just after system boots up. If you have non-smp kernel can you try to recompile it with smp and apic support? p.s. motherboard asus p5m2/2gbl -- Best regards, Wishmaster mailto:wishmaster-velnet@yandex.ru
