I have also noticed this same behavior on my 2500/20, since I started
using SetCPU (last fall).  I never had the problem prior to that.  I also
believe Dave Haynie had something to say about this.  Does Dave know Guru's?
BTW, I think my motherboard is rev. 4.4, but I can't be sure (it's been
a while since I opened up the box).
