It is a shame that you didn't read the documentation properly, or you would
have seen that that particular problem only relates to the AMD K6 and a few
of the AMD K6II-300s made between weeks 34 and 39 of 1998. NO other AMD CPU
is affected by this problem! I have an AMD K6 II-300 and have had no
problems with it.As soon as I have a couple of things paid off, I will be
moving up to an Athlon.

Now, go away and come back when you learn a bit of netiquette.
