Periodically when I boot my PC (a Leading Edge Model D, 8088) I get
the following message:

Unexpected HW interrupt 0D at C800:074E.  Type (R)eboot...

This doesn't occur EVERY time I boot and typically occurs when booting
after powering on the PC.  I suspect this might be related to some flaky
behavior I see occasionally with my hard disk but there doesn't seem to
be a direct correllation.  

Does anyone have a clue as to what this error could mean?

Thanks in advance,
Brian
