"same bug here too. it seems to be prevalent in Acer and Lenovo systems, or any system with the AC97 chipset. Almost exclusively notebooks/netbooks with this bug, and always after using a USB device of some sort. It has been my experience that nothing actually -happens- afterwards though... it does not make the system in any way unstable. May be a false-positive. recommend ignoring it."

What the ....

My system doesn't have an AC97 chipset - it is not a notebook and it is definitely not an Acer or lenovo.

Prevalent - yeps (sarcasm)

Recommend not ignoring it - it happens to me every single day of the week on an AMD tower with a nvidia card.

Unstable - no - but it means that copying anything from a USB drive to anywhere other than local is unstable hence unreliable as the drive is liable to reset halfway through a long copy.
