- Since I know very little about MS-DOS and MS-Windows, I don't know
- whether this is a plausible problem source, but under Linux another
- common source of lost IRQs are IDE disk/adapter/driver combinations
- hogging CPU time while having the IRQs disabled.

- Check the man page for "hdparm" for hints on how to deal with IDE
- trouble.
