************************************************************
* 3B. FIXES INCLUDED IN THIS RELEASE
************************************************************
Revision: Version 2.10RC Build 0001 Release Information:
1. The following files were updated to ensure consistent
updates of ICH SMBus Controller devices.
ICHx.INF (all versions)
ICHxSMB.INF (created; all versions)
2. The Installer will not update the ICH SMBus Controller
device information if the SMBus device driver for
Intel LANDesk Software Package is already installed on
the system.
Revision: Version 2.00RC Build 0002 Release Information:
1. Changes to ensure that updates are performed on
systems where the PCI subsystem ID is non-zero
on a key device. Previous versions would
incur an additional prompt for "change driver"
from Windows setup, if the subsystem field
was non-zero for key devices in the INF file,
under Windows 98.
2. Changes to ensure that PIRQ Routing support is
associated with the enumeration of the
Intel(r) 82801AA, 82801AB LPC Interface Controllers.
(PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2410 or PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2420)
In Build 0001 these fields were associated with
the enumeration of the Intel(r) 82801AA, 82801AB SMBus
Controllers. This addresses a problem where PIRQ
Routing would fail to function in the case where the SMBus
Controller is disabled on these systems.
3. Changes to ensure that the Device Manager indicates
"Intel" as Provider for devices supported by this
software.
4. Changes to ensure that the CD-ROM drive is always
visible during SETUP by ensuring that the core IDE
controller nodes are always present during update
(*PNP0600).
This addresses a problem in Build 0001 where
SETUP is not able to update the Windows configuration
because of a failure to access the CD-ROM drive. This
problem was seen primarily on systems where the Windows
SETUP image was not located on the local hard drive.
5. Changes to remove an extraneous message to re-boot the
system seen on 840 based systems.
6. Changes to remove an incorrect message where the
Installer says system is not the correct chipset or
OS Version. This problem was seen when the software
was run on systems where INF information already included
with Windows 98 SE.
7. Changes to remove a prompt to "change driver",
seen when the Intel(r) 82802 Firmware Hub Controller
is enumerated.
Revision: Version 2.00RC Build 0001 Release Information:
1. Changes to ensure that updates are performed on
systems where the PCI subsystem ID is non-zero
on a key device. Previous versions would
fail the update update if the subsystem field
was non-zero for key devices.
2. Support for generic devices referenced in
MACHINE.INF, MACHINE2.INF has been added to
the Windows 98 version of ICHx.INF.
This addresses an issue seen in the previous
release where certain devices were not being
installed during preload.

************************************************************
* 3C. SOFTWARE SIGHTINGS AND/OR ERRATA FOR THIS RELEASE
************************************************************
Revision: Version 2.10RC Build 0001 Release Information:
1. A change driver prompt may be displayed from Windows
setup on systems whose PCI Subsystem ID fields are
programmed to a non-zero value for the below devices.
This is seen when the PCI subsystem field value does not
match the following:
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7120&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7122&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7124&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7126&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2500&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2501&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_250B&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1A20&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1A21&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1A22&SUBSYS_00000000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7120&SUBSYS_71208086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7122&SUBSYS_71228086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7124&SUBSYS_71248086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_7126&SUBSYS_71268086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2500&SUBSYS_25008086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2501&SUBSYS_25018086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_250B&SUBSYS_250B8086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1A20&SUBSYS_1A208086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1A21&SUBSYS_1A218086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1A22&SUBSYS_1A228086
2. During Windows setup stage, 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 INF Installation
Utility may cause prompts during Windows setup stage,
it should not be used on systems with USB keyboard and
mouse as the sole input devices.
3. When the INF 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 INF Installation Utility operation has no effect
on this issue.
4. Older revisions of the Intel(r) LANDesk Software Package
may cause a Device Manager warning when installed on
a system After the INF Installation Utility has been
executed on the system.
This warning may occur for the following devices:
Intel(r) 82801AA SMBus Controller
Intel(r) 82801AB SMBus Controller
