Two of my Abit BP6 motherboards have developed an anoying fault.
It takes an average 10 cycles of the power switch before they will boot, 
the rest of the time they just sit there dormant, no speaker beep or flash
of the keyboard leds. Both have worked fine for about a year. 
Both are running 433Mhz celerons. It looks like a weird hardware problem, 
both were fine up until running 4.1.1-STABLE.

Anyone had a simiar experience with the BP6?

Also I cant seem to boot from the 4.1.1-RELEASE installer CD, the kernel
loads up to the point where it's doing the APIC_IO test and freezes.

4.1.1-STABLE kernels seem to be fine.

Any ideas?

- Ernie.
