I have a box that's running SL7, intel 3930K i7 CPU, Intel DX79SR motherboard.
I had to build atlas on the board, which means I had to turn off the CPU frequency scaling in the bios. In the time since (after turning freq scaling back on, and occasionally before), I've seen the "Fast TSC calibration failed" error during boot. This error locks up the machine and it doesn't make it to the login screen. Most of the google results from this error call it harmless. Does it sound like this error relates to my hardware (rather than SL7?) -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nathan Moore Mississippi River and 44th Parallel - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
