This actually sounds fairly similar to my problem.

I have noticed this happen to me when I have started X or am running a
program in X.

I haven't had this problem but I don't have any partitions which fsck
checks at the same time.
This is interesting I had thought this may be a problem with my hardare
configuration, but it would appear that you are getting similar problems
with a different system.
I'll include some more detailed inforation about my system.

As I mentioned in my previous post this is using the Abit BP6
motherboard. I have also experienced "hdb: lost interrupt" under
similar conditions.
