Hi Rui, > Just to let you know that gbl_smi_en=0, also solves the problem with > Intel DG35EC motherboard, witch uses a 82801HB I/O Controller Hub (ICH8) Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to put the code in the iTCO_vendor_support code so that the iTCO_wdt watchdog code stays clean. The glb_smi_en is and stays a dirty hack... (and I will also document it as such). The real solution is to have the BIOS code fixed...
