I have AHCI enabled for my main HDD and DVD, but I also have an IDE hard drive in there too.
I had problems before I put the old IDE hard-drive in though.
So the differences are that I have an AMD system, you have intel. I have an NVIDIA graphics card with the proprietary drivers, you may not.
I could try a clean install of Ubuntu, update it and avoid any additional kernel modules such as the NVIDIA drivers, but that's not really practical at this stage, and I don't know enough about the kernel to know whether that would even help. I did have the proposed and backports enabled initially to see if any newer software would help, but I have since disabled them.
Nice system by the way, I'd like an i7 920 or 930 at some stage.
WeatherGod, yes I rebooted, and you'll see that in the uname -a output, the second one I listed is build #36, the first one is #35.
