- 1. Localization fixes are included with this release.
-
-
- ************************************************************
- * 3D. SOFTWARE SIGHTINGS AND/OR ERRATA FOR THIS RELEASE
- ************************************************************
-
- Revision: Version 2.30 Production Release Build 020 Information:
-
- 1. During setup, some localized versions of the software may
- display a welcome screen with incomplete text. This
- has seen when installing the German and Japanese versions
- of the software.
-
- 2. When installing this software on an ICH2-based platform
- running Windows Millennium operating system, an automatic
- reboot will occur immediately after Windows re-enumeration
- has completed for the updated chipset devices. This
- behavior is normal and necessary for Windows Millennium
- to correctly update the IDE channels.
-
-
- 3. This software will install the ICHxSMB.INF file on
- systems running Windows 98 Second Edition, even though
- the SMBus device is natively supported by the OS.
- This is done to allow the easy update of any future SMBus
- driver.
-
-
- 4. During the Windows setup stage, the USB keyboard
- and mouse may not be accessible. This is because
- the legacy USB driver may be inactive when Windows
- enters the GUI mode. There is a small window
- of time when it may not be possible for the system
- to accept user input. Since the Chipset Softwre
- Installation Utility may cause prompts during the
- Windows setup stage, it should be ensured that the
- system BIOS support for legacy USB keyboard and mouse
- is enabled.
-
- 5. When the Chipset Software Installation Utility is run
- on a system with Windows 95 Original Release, the Device
- Manager may report a memory resource conflict. This
- conflict involves the resources allocated to PCI cards
- that are located behind a PCI bridge. The operating
- system incorrectly reports a memory conflict even though
- the memory resources in question are fully contained
- within the PCI bridge aperture. This appears to be a
- known issue with the Windows 95 operating system.
- The Chipset Software Installation Utility operation has
- no effect on this issue.
-
- 6. Older revisions of the Intel(R) LANDesk Software Package
- may cause a Device Manager warning when installed on
- a system after the Chipset Software Installation Utility
- has been executed on the system.
-
- 7. When running this software on Intel PIIX4-based chipset
- platforms, an extra reboot message might appear after
- the operating system has completed setup.
-
-
