The complete screen of the error is below, there is one error in the second
block of the STACK info. Had to hand write it and did not notice until I
typed it out.

<0> Kernel Panic: Aiee, Killing Interupt Handler
In Interupt Handler - Not Syncing

We disabled the integrated audio in bios. Other than that is is a stock.
The PC crashes about once a day with this error. Let me know if there is
anything else that is needed, as this is my first post. Also no useful log
data. Just happily chugging along and the syslog restarting after a manual
reset. Yes it will be posted to RedHat.
