I have just tested this, in relation to bug 

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213346

The machine doesn't crash now, but the X server fails to start,  the
same problem I saw with the early BIOS versions on the OptiPlex GX270.

Here's the relevant section of the Xserver log:

(EE) I810(0): No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth.

Backtrace:
0: /usr/bin/Xorg(xf86SigHandler+0x81) [0x80d4cc1]

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

I shall attach the full log to the bugzilla entry.
