Jon, I am sorry to hear this. But have you tried booting kernel with APIC 'on'? Thanks.

They are trying to protect me from myself I guess because they tell me they dont offer the update because it might cause issues with some of my hardware. Very Frustrating! If they do relent and send me one I will pick this thread back up, otherwise I might just need to build my own system and sell this thing. :( Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ E1000-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/e1000-devel To learn more about Intel® Ethernet, visit http://communities.intel.com/community/wired
