I can't change to TSC i just get errors and actually i'm running a generic kernel. I'm prolly going to attempt to mod it and remove some stuff i don't need and mabey that'll sort this problem out. but, i don't know.. > Check your devices to see if something is generating a lot of > interrupts (a printer port, perhaps?). This is going to sound like a stupid question but, is there an easy way to check this in bsd? Thanx for the help..
