Some questions for users:

1) Do you want to monitor temperature of CPU? The widget doesn't show
proper values.. then try to google, find something like (path in ACPI tree):
\\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.SIOR.HWT1

google -> model of your motherboard + temperature + SBRG or HWT + TEMP or TMP

2) Do you feel problems with NVidia chipset in  /SMP /APIC and /!NOD switch? What are the problems?

3) VPIC.SYS testing.
Join the testing if the computer works in PIC mode and doesn't in APIC.
If you have a custom PCI device (DOS drivers only) then prepare  Null-modem cable.
If you have simple Core Duo and have troubles with APIC then contact us.


4) Please confirm that Suspend/resume works on 1 CPU, Videodriver should be: Panorama VESA

5) Owners of Acer notebooks: if Wifi adapter is not visible for the system then use PCIWRITE

6) Users with AMD chipset, please try something like this: /SMP /APIC /!NOD /SAP:0x10

7) Do throttling and set of power state work for you? Try W4 kernel if no success with SMP kernel.

8) If the boot is slow , if boot stops at KBDBASE then  notify us what is the model of your PC. (SMP APIC mode)

9) If PC hangs when you start ACPIDaemon then inform us.
