Intel official information on the P02 BIOS is "BIOS P02 previously posted to this website was removed due to the following errata: USB Ports stop working after updating to BIOS P02 on Intel® Desktop Boards D845BG and D845PT". An updated Bios, P03, has been released.

Intel has pulled BIOS P02 for the D845PT/D845BG main boards. This version was to add USB Legacy support for the USB 2.0 products, fix the problem where the system does not boot from USB CD-ROM attached to SIO hub port, speed up POST time, and remove SPD check summing due to speed concerns.
* Update: I spoke with Intel Technical Support and they claim that the posting of P02 was a mistake. If you have already flashed your BIOS with P02 they recommend reflashing your BIOS with P01.

For all you Lego People out there who noticed the very nice train depot on page 53 in the January 2002 issue from Lego and wondered if it was offered, it’s not. I talked to Lego about its availability and they said it was just a design to give people ideas. Since Lego isn't going to sell it, I used the pictures they provided and did up the plans in ML-CAD.

Well another strike against American Online (AOL). It seems that v.92 modems are not supported by AOL. These modems may be randomly detected during the launch of AOL. The only solution give by their technical support is to replace the modem with a different (non v.92) modem.
