The chip is electrically tested in a rig and then placed in a PC and booted. If it's an NT failure, I think it goes to a special bad parts pile. Bear in mind that this would be the same pile as all of the other mysterious failures. I haven't seen one BSOD at work. I think they do a good job of keeping the NT config locked down. ----- Kris Kirby, KE4AHR | TGIFreeBSD...
