Actually, the turbo was always "inverted". But I guess that calling it

I have a i8100 and the problem only happens when I close the lid and
_then_ pulls the powerplug, if I unplug before closing there is no
problem. I think it's the same if I plug in the powerplug when the
computer is closed and then opens it.
Anyway, I allways plug/unplug when the computer is on.

No, apparently it forces a re-read of the temp sensors.
Doesn't happen with my A18 BIOS on i8000 and definately happens on A20
and A21 BIOS's too. Can't remember if I tried A19.
