T'wasn't "ragging on AMD/Cyrix." I was "ragging on" the
person/persons responsible for the *apparently* buggy atx APM drivers.

The implication *I* got from you, Axalon, was that it was a driver
problem, not that it was a BIOS problem. Are you now stating that
it's a BIOS problem and not an APM driver problem???
I can understand why it would happen to O/C'ed systems, but other
than *intentionally* destabilized (overclocked) systems, have there
been any reports of this happening on an Intel chipset or processor?
Just wondering why it appears to be affecting PRIMARILY non-Intel
chpsets and processors? (NOTE: I *prefer* non-intel processors!!!)
