Less sense than many, but more than most.
Disabling L1 & L2 Cache
I am at a friends place, and we have discovered the funniest 'Help Text' within the BIOS, for the 'Disable Processor Cache' option...
==== Help ====
Disable the Processor L1 & L2 Caches in case the system is too fast for an Application.
NOTE: The system will run extremely slow.
Why anyone would want to disable the L1 & L2 cache is a mystery to me (if you know a valid reason, let me know!). But it is good to see the guys who wrote this BIOS had a sense of humour.
Keep up the good work guys :)

I finally got past the 'secret shutdowns' of the HP, too... For some twisted, bizarre, unknown reason - I need the hard drives to be running in LBA mode. What the??
