Nihil: Hello, a brain.. Where do you see MS charging for NT Service Packs (unless you want to order the CD)... I am downloading one right now for FREE!!!!! ALL CPU's (x86) have the same code that allows the processor to be fixed.. but only if the instruction is in the microcode. If it is hard coded then there isn't anything to do about it (short of exchanging the chip). OH, one other thing.. I don't see MS taking $475 charge to replace bad copies of Windows 95.. do you? Steve
