Thank you so much for your help. I upgraded to bios version 1014 (The most
recent I could find on ASUS web site) and disabled MPS 1.4 (which I assume
means 1.1 is enabled).

Ok.. two thingys... get the latest bios and flash it from ASUS. Also... go
into the bios settings and look for MPS Level or something close to it and
set it to 1.1 level.
I have the DLS version of the same MB and did the above two things and it
boots the 2.4.17 SMP kernel just fine.
