Perry,
Its even worse. On one mtbd; the BIOS had a menu
for enabling ECC; I did. But reading the register
from the chipset revealed nothing was actually
enabled in the hardware. You have to be paranoid
in this business. This was a "bleeding edge"
mtbd, with a low revision BIOS of course. The fu
being that a car manufacturer ran a cluster of
these for several months doing crash worthiness simulations ...

I've been reading spec sheets, and they often don't tell you, which is
rather annoying. Thus my question.
