[SOLVED] Unexpected reset of communication controller

Hallo,

I have here a Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H board and today I updated its BIOS to the newest version (because I have some seldom freezes which might come from my Ivybridge and I just wanted to exclude other possibilities).
However, since then dmesg logs the following message every 30s:

mei 0000:00:16.0: unexpected reset.

If I interpret this right this refers to PCI address 00:16 which is - according to lspci

00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 (rev 04)

Does anybody know what this is telling me? Should I worry (hardware failure) or can I ignore it? What should I do to further investigate the cause of this?

Thanks in advance!

Re: [SOLVED] Unexpected reset of communication controller

Well, this again was clearly a case of "think and WAIT before you write":
I just checked the gigabyte website and behold: a new BIOS version was released (probably it has been released some days ago, but it didn't appear on the German website) which solved the issue.
So have a nice day...
