   Note that your situation is different to that of M. Yeo.  You're getting    
   different symptoms.  M. Yeo's problem may well be a bona fide interrupt    
   delivery problem.  You say that you have a working system for a while,    
   indicating that all of the interrupt signals that are involved in disk    
   I/O, keyboard I/O, mouse I/O, and the system heartbeat are being handled    
   and not misrouted or lost.   
      
   Don't get hung up on OS2APIC.PSD just because it is the only tunable    
   that is easy for you to tune.   
      
   For starters, have you tried Mike Greene's procedure from 2004?
