This message specifically means that the CPU isn't allowing EST to be
enabled, even though the CPU has the capability. I think the BIOS can
lock this down, like VT on later processors. Though I can't imagine
why, unless the machine is being sold as a cheaper/slower system than
the CPU they put in it...
What does the SMM patch do?
