its either the kernel thats on them or the the kexts that are included I know when i tried to install the modbin 9.2.2. kernel i got the reset problem. It uses all 4 cores and your lucky if it goes over 3% usage. There is no problem with 10.5.2 its just the iso builds that have the problem with phenom. A 10.5.1 install thats updated works fine.
