Hi A customer has 2 Prioris XL 5166 Server with NT 4 and SP3. While they were running with a single CPU everything was OK. Then the customer upgraded both machines to dual 5166 CPUs. We got two problems on both machines: -NT stated that one CPU was a 5133 (we solved this by replacing the CPU board with a new one with the correct rev.) -the clock started running very irregularly, sometimes too fast (as much as 200 sec. in 10 min.) and sometimes too slow; Just by looking at an instance of clock.exe you could tell that it was irregular. A field engineer noticed that accessing setup the time was OK and stayed OK. The same thing goes if the server is floppy booted to DOS. So the problem only shows in NT 4 and with 2 CPUs. Any sugestions? Is this a HW or SW problem? Do you think this could be a virus? Thank you very much Pedro Torres [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

There's an ECO to fix this for these daughtercards. I don't have this info handy though. If your in Europe get in contact with the support group in Valbonne by sending a mail to [email protected], or log a call via the web on http://cpcpub.vbo.dec.com Pjotrr | |||||
