So, only after a total discharge of the "capacitors" the machine was able to run again. These, are only suppositions -or superstitions-. So, if the machine dies suddenly after running SUSE Live 11.1, give it a chance in the "styx" maybe "Charon" can return the MB to you.

However, Marco is incorrect about SUSE "ruining the hardware" or even about the "CMOS info becoming shit." For the few ppl affected, the time is changed in the other OS's on a multi-boot system because SUSE is changing the hardware clock.

For the few ppl affected, the time is changed in the other OS’s on a multi-boot system because SUSE is changing the hardware clock.

Debian and the security packages, and now openSUSE modifies the hardware clock, without warning or some advice. Vista works fine on the same PC, unbelievable (since is a Microsoft product); a D865PERL Intel motherboard, P-IV HT 3Ghz, 4GB RAM, running a RHEL-5 clone, openBSD and Vista Ultimate. [...] so, is not a matter of an OSs war[...] is a real issue on "some hardware" with this openSUSE live-CD, maybe the password protected BIOS?
