Intel claims Itanium problem fixed 213.219.40.69 Intel claims Itanium problem fixed Working together as partners By Mike Magee, 27/11/2001 19:04:47 BST AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM Intel said that it and Compaq have now solved the problem, sighting or whatever with the Itanium 64-bit processor we reported on and Proliants using the chips will ship shortly. The statement said: "Compaq and Intel worked together to resolve the reported issue (sighting). "Compaq expects to introduce its Itanium-based systems shortly. "A BIOS software configuration change was made to address the sighting. "The BIOS software change we recommended is Itanium processor-related and how hardware interfaces with the operating system and data flow. The change we recommended has helped meet Compaq's criteria for shipments and the company expects to begin shipping systems shortly." What implications this may have on other Itanium systems shipped by the other 19 vendors was unclear at press time. µ See Also Compaq's memo about the Itanium problem Intel confirms Itanium problem Itanium bug halts Compaq systems Who moved my Compaq cheese
