Elmer, Paul, Intel Pentium II is a piece of crap and Intel does not stand behind its products. Ali is right, the "FP inexact exception" bug is listed in the category "NO FIX" along with eighteen other errors in the Pentium II. In fact, out of 14 other bugs they claim will eventually be fixed, they have actually fixed 3. Then there's 9 bugs they swept under the rug by "re-specifying" the CPU! 18 bugs that will NEVER be fixed 11 bugs that might be fixed -- eventually 9 bugs "explained away" as features ONE KILLER BUG THAT REQUIRES THAT YOU POWER OFF YOUR CPU, POTENTIALLY WITH A HALF-WRITTEN FAT AND DIRECTORY STRUCTURE!
