I've fixed it for my laptop with compressed air. I've seen hpet message too. And my laptop would become very slow. I even measured this slow down. It was alway about x10 times slower or x60 slower. Surprisingly it was still very usable with x10. These slowdowns were random and intermittent. Sometime it would survive reboot. This is how I figured it was HW related. I've opened my hp6910p laptop, and cleaned up motherboard from dust with compressed air can. No more slowdowns or hpet messages.
