Hmm, the last time I encountered something like this, DMA was deactivated for the hard disk. That happened because the wrong driver (generic IDE) took over. What raw throughput do you get? `dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=4M count=100 iflag=direct` > >> Odd. Maybe GPU related? Again, does the system recover? > > No GPU is deactivated.

Maybe something is trying to use opengl and software emulation slows you down. >> Doesn't surprise me.

Anything newer is a vast improvement, especially Core2 and newer. Regards, Florian Philipp
