scumbria - Re: "Obviously the problem is with the Gateway system "

According to Gateway:

zdnet.com

"The anomaly was tracked to the PCI bus on the motherboard, which is manufactured by Microstar International. It wasn't seen in 100 percent of the machines, so some Gateway Select PCs using K6-2 have shipped. Ritter could not say how many."

According to AMD:

AMD-K6® Recommended Motherboards

amd.com

www1.amd.com
(Select K6-2/400 and ATX MB)

Microstar (MSI) MS-5169 Revision 2.1B & 4.0A are APPROVED motherboards for the K6-2 400 Mhz CPU !!!

Well, now - just what kind of TESTING did AMD do on these Microstar Motherboards in order to help along their new favorite customer, Gateway ?

Perhaps these will be relabeled K6-2 GateDelay PCs !
