Looking at the Smolt statistics is always depressing. Even the mighty HP has lost the market share war to the up-and-coming "System manufacturer", thanks to the overwhelmingly popular "System Product Name System Version"

I think it would have to be thoroughly tested on each specific motherboard before they go overriding what the BIOS is trying to tell the OS and enabling it anyway for everybody. That's probably the reason why the mobo manuf. didn't bother enabling it in the BIOS to begin with.... The manuf. may have never thoroughly tested it.... Or perhaps they just felt that setting it in the BIOS was redundant if the drivers enforced it.
If someone knows what parameters to change I could maybe hack the FADT myself to enable ASPM on my Abit mobo.

Originally posted by Chewi View PostI think it should include servers. Electricity is a significant cost in running a server and not all servers push all their hardware to the maximum all the time. My own desktop is also my personal server that stays on all the time. This bug certainly matters to me.
