Yep, that's why I wrote about it here, I see very good suggestions on this list. > Maybe check if there is a BIOS update available? Might be worth a shot. I already upgraded the BIOS to have the dual-core CPU recognized, otherwise the kernel would not even start. There is yet another update on the ASUS site but it's mainly for AM3 processor compatibility and labelled as 'beta' so I'm a bit nervous to try it ;-)
