I want you to make sure
1.      You have latest BIOS installed
2.      Make sure you have APIC enable in kernel, if not try booting your 
kernel with APIC 'on' (or remove noapic)
3.      Send me the dmesg log since system boot time

Thanks.

Is there a solution to this? I am completely out of ideas and google  
is not helping.
