JC May remember me talking to him about low Benchmark scores i was getting with a Hewlett Packard PC that was just Purchased with a Intel 733 coppermine a few weeks ago.
Anyway i found the Problem and it could be a big one.HP sent a Hardware diagnostic prog for the system,and part of the L2 Cache on the chip was bad,not only in this one but all 4 systems that was purchased just before Christmas.
After running their Hardware Diagnostic prog and giving them a call back,they had said they was getting a lot of these with the Coppermine systems.All the PC's is scheduled to be shipped back to them Monday for fixing.

Thought i would pass this along.
