VIA chipset bug wrecks data
VIA Technologies is preparing BIOS updates with motherboard manufacturers for a rare data-corrupting problem in its 686B Southbridge chip, part of the company's KT-133A chipset. The bug only affects file transfers of files of 100MB or larger between two hard drives connected to separate IDE channels exchanging the data by DMA. The fix will be posted, according to the Register, on VIA's Website next week.
