Apologuse I must be getting dislecsic I thought you said ACPI, but even so I
run all mine with APIC enabled and ACPI disbled and have never had 1 prob
with anything related to the pci activity, this very machine has been at
100% cpu for over 4 months except for updating distro last week ( seti or
games or video editing ) at the moment I am watching tv, seti, moving more
than 20gigs from 1 hard drive to another and browsing web and posting here
without a hitch, motherboard is a soltek nforce 2 ultra, barton 2800 @ 2250,
1 gig cas 2 ocz ram @ highest settings and it is barely breaking into a
sweat, SuSE9.
