Same problem here with MSI GE62 2QE Apache Pro. I tried both debian8.1 and Ubuntu15.04 on the real machine and received= same kernel panics. Updating kernels to 4.2 doesn't help. I also tried those two systems in VMware workstation under Windows 10 a= nd ended up in BSODs saying "MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTIONS".=20 I then tried to use debian in VMware at runlevel=3D3. It seems to be st= able. I don't know why.=20 I'm going to try your way to get a stable system. Will reply if anythin= g new discovered. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
