Re: "Why is AMD having "BIOS TROUBLES" with K6-2's at 380 MHz ?"

Will someone explain to Engel how a computer works in the 1990s??

Paul,
RE:"Why is AMD having "BIOS TROUBLES" with K6-2's at 380 MHz ?"

Apparently you read all the posts. Even mine.
But that's not quite the case...it's the 333s and 350s not 380s and 400s.
So what BIS problem would cause the 333 and 350 not to boot?

Jim

I didn't know that they were. What have you heard?

Paul,

Re: "Why is AMD having "BIOS TROUBLES" with K6-2's at 380 MHz ?"

I'll bet it's because the 380Mhz K6-2 is too fast ... Sounds like the
Win95 problem. <ggg> That's what happens when you don't properly
model/simulate at the chip and system level. At least this time Paul, AMD
didn't just ship "faulty" systems.

Make It So,
