Article 106503 (8593 more) in comp.sys.intel: From: Bob_Cline@ccm.sc.intel.com (Bob Cline) Subject: Re: Matrox adaptors & 440FX PCIset systems Date: Fri, 01 Nov 96 08:44:37 PST Organization: Online Relations Lines: 16 NNTP-Posting-Host: rcline.sc.intel.com Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.93.9 >We anticipate making additional data and information available in the >near future. Intel and Matrox have jointly confirmed the cause of the recently reported issue between the Matrox Meteor graphics adapter board and the Intel 440FX chipset. The root cause is an illegal PCI signal generated by the PCI interface chip on the adapter board. This is not an Intel Pentium(R) Pro processor or an Intel 440FX chipset issue. For further information on this issue or Matrox products, please contact your local Matrox sales representative, Matrox office or Matrox headquarters. Bob Cline Intel Corporation ---------- The question now is when is Matrox, OmniMedia or Philips going to fix the problem. For that I don't have an answer except to just wait because I know both Matrox and OmniMedia are working on a solution to the problem. Amancio
