Mani, From the JCs Message board - jc-news.com _______________________________________________________________________ INTEL Problems /w Coppermine chips.Hewlett Packard says! Posted by BigHammer on Saturday, 8 January 2000, at 2:23 p.m. 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. BH ______________________________________________________________________ Please note that this is a post from the JCs message board - not from his news update.

Mani - <. I am thinking what Intel is doing now to make sure the announcement will not happen on Monday. Please, no more, Make the darn announcement.> Sounds like a done deal to me. I think you can rest easy. And of course, I am not happy about it. I personally am having a hard time coming to terms with the possibility that GTW supply problems with a) low end Intel CPU's and B) BX chipsets / MB's, both very mature products that yield very well, may be responsible for this development. I italicized the above words because I certainly don't know what the full story is; just making some preliminary conclusions from reading the press on the subject in aggregate. PB
