of course,

it's a MSI [1]. I have installed the last version of the bios. Activating the 
cool n quiet I got problems with the clocksource. I have tested hpet, tsc and 
acpi. I ccan try to test it again if this is the trick and I have missed 
something.

Best regards,

Leo

PS I have make cc to the list because I thought that you missed it, I hope 
don't offend you.
