lithium06 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 I have an MSI P6N-SLI and I have an option in my BIOS to dis/enable HPET. If it's not there your mobo may not support it? check their site and mobo specs.

zef Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 it's enabled!! how did you know it's not?? Maybe he got a nice kernel panic because of disabled HPET. Recent Intel boards have HPET disabled by default.

VincentM: Go to BIOS setup and enable the kernel will force_enable_hpet even if it's disabled from the BIOS.

VincentM Posted October 13, 2007 Author Share Posted October 13, 2007 Well when I open my harddrive, I see this file "mach_kernel.nohpet", so I am assuming I don't have hpet enabled.
