Re: No it wouldn't. If it doesn't hit the OS periodically, then it is flagged as non-responsive. If it can boot the OS and run at least subset tasks, then chances are it can run more complicated ones. You are grasping at straws here. Please don't embarrass yourself so openly.

CJ, you're the only one embarrassing yourself. You are not a hardware expert, yet you pretend to be. You are fighting against a notion with simple reasoning and simple conclusions. I ask you and others reading this to do their own due diligence, and find out for themselves how easy it is to get Task Manager to register with 100% load. Almost any simple program or script can do it. You could create a demo yourself by running almost anything and showing 100% load in task manager. AMD can do the same with a bug ridden Barcelona chip. You just don't know how stable it is unless you run it on a sensible workload.

If you can't understand this simple argument by now, you're either being disingenuous, or else too ignorant to grasp. Either way, I need not go any farther.
