Ciirruslvr:The chipset, which accompanies the new Pentium III processors, is the first use of a memory-enhancing technology developed by Rambus Inc. <RMBS.O>, based in Mountain View, Calif. Certain systems were experiencing intermittent errors at extreme temperatures and voltages and the companies said two weeks ago that they were working to resolve the bugs.

"They have the problem solved and they are testing the fix," said Linley Gwennap, editorial director of the Microprocessor Report. "They have to make sure the fix doesn't cause another problem...Everyone wants to stand up on the stage and say the chipset is ready. But they can't commit to anything unless it is 100 percent validated."

An Intel spokesman declined to comment on the chipset status, or if it will be introduced on Monday.

Meanwhile, some PC makers are in limbo and unable to ship their new products, until the 820 chipset is ready. Some are looking at alternatives, such as Intel's other chipset, the 810E, but it does not have the same graphics performance.
