Steven,

	One question:
	Do you have MTRR enabled?
	If so, a temporary workaround is to re-compile the kernel with
it disabled.

	This is getting to be something of an epidemic.
	As I said, AMD's docs state that the write-combining was
altered in the model and stepping stated. However, I would not
consider myself *nearly* experienced enough in x86 assembler to start
playing around with trying to work up a patch.

Victor
