- Intel Microprocessor Identification Utility
- ===============================================
- April 1995: This executable file will identify the type of Intel
- microprocessor your PC contains. It will also tell you whether or not your
- Pentium(R) processor has the floating point divide flaw.
-
- To run the Microprocessor Identification Utility, exit Windows*, OS/2* or
- Unix* to DOS. At the DOS prompt, type A:\CPUIDF and press Enter. The
- program takes only a few seconds to run.
-
- After the program runs, the identification of the microprocessor is
- displayed on screen. If the program identifies yours as a Pentium processor
- containing the floating point divide flaw, you can receive authorization for
- a replacement at any time during the life of your PC by calling Intel's
- Pentium Processor Support Hotline.
-
- If the program displays the message that it is not running in real mode,
- then you should do the following:
-

-
- 3. Wait for the DOS prompt to return.
-
- 4. Exit all applications.
-
- 5. With the diskette still in Drive A, reboot the system from the
- diskette. It will automatically run the CPUIDF program in real mode.
-
