TSC=Time Stamp Counter. Processors have dynamically changed clock speed (ofc to save power). The TSC is supposed to tick at the CPU rate (unless it's a constant_tsc, see /proc/cpuinfo flags, so on frequency change, this ought to happen. The kernel will automatically switch to something else. There's acpi_pm <-(this is what yours has switched to) and, IIRC, pit. This message seems to appear with the newer kernel upgrades.

You could try disabling the acpi in the bios, other than that there seems to be various fixes around for the tsc problem. I don't know if any of them will help you. To see a few put this in google: Fix TSC timer selection
