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
