I don't know exactly what the events/ processes are, but my guess pretty much the same as yours. My guess is interrupt handling. It could be ACPI interrupts, so you could try the failsafe method. I don't know the ramifications of doing that though - it might be that there's a lot of interrupts because something's not working properly (hardware). Chad
