Yeah, all they have to do is search google. So they turn their computer on and . . . How one gets the instructions is an entirely different matter than whether they have the skills to do the fix. The problem here is that all you want to do is whine about how it can't be done rather than get it done. Sympathizing is not the same as whining. You seem to take great glee in the fact that many average computer users are going to experience unwanted downtime due to Microsoft's screw-up. I really do get tired of you dreaming up dumb fantasies about what's been said. Oh, ****, now you're going to tell me that it's not Microsoft's screw-up. It's about time you figured that out. -Dave |

For a computer that runs just fine without SP2, WHAT problem are you talking about, exactly? -Dave The entire processor errata list that's left UN-fixed because the broken BIOS doesn't have the proper microcode. So I take it this processor errata list causes the computer not to boot? Or it causes the computer to unexpectedly shut down? Maybe it causes global thermonuclear war? What kind of problem does it cause that the end user will NOTICE? That is, before installing SP2 . . . -Dave Why don't you go to Intel's site and DOWNload the damn thing so maybe you'd learn something instead of talking out your arse. |

In article , Dave C. says...
Well according to some here your BIOS is broken if your computer boots correctly and runs OK. -Dave You're stupid aren't you? Hey, I'm not the one claiming a computer that boots correctly and runs OK must have a broken BIOS. -Dave How long did you claim you've been into PCs? -- Conor Opinions personal, facts suspect. |

Howdy!
"Dave C." wrote in message ... But your definition of a proper BIOS conflicts with reality. That's just plain silly. There's no 'conflict with reality' in expecting the mainboard manufacturer to use the proper microcode. And for the thousandth time, there is nothing wrong with the BIOS until SP2 is installed. -Dave Why, yes, there is, if it's not doing the microcode updates that Intel *ahem* "highly recommends".
