Speedstep / Wait State Problems ???
Hi,
yes... my Opitiplex crashes too under 2.2.19 (not only on 2.4.12). But now i
had a special experience with this problem...
after it locked up, i turned my Laptop off and started again...
with i BIOS Error
ERROR: 280 Previous Boot Incomplete - Default Configuration Used...
and then he started with about ~ 20 MHz running my Debian ;) What a shock !!
OK, after my next restart it went back to "750MHz-Mode".
The interesting thing to this error-msg is the following:
"On systems with control of _wait states_, improper Setup settings can also
terminate POST and cause this error on next boot"
AFAIK is Linux a system, that controls wait states, nor ?
Any ideas, or tips to correct this problem ??
I'm not sure, that this is the same failure like "Speedstep" (Speedstep is
"new" to me)
Greetings
Andy
