************************************************************
* 3D.  SOFTWARE SIGHTINGS AND/OR ERRATA FOR THIS RELEASE
************************************************************

Revision:  Version 2.30 Production Release Build 021b 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.
