Re: powernowd / stock kernels

[Michael Wagener <mike.wagener@web.de>]

Hi,

would you mind posting your type of mainboard?
I have CnQ running but sometimes the machine locks up hard when the
CPU tries to throttle up. Throttling down and running full-speed w/o
powernowd works fine though :-|

I'm trying to hunt this down and assuming a Board/BIOS/CMOS problem.

I am using a AMD64 3500+ on a MSI K8T Neo2 board (last BIOS).

Thank you,
Mike
