Cool. I see new revision for my "grandpa".
Intel’s asses! I did not think that Intel would put them in public access…
All these versions with serious bugs. apparently a unified system of patches.
A simple test (I do not think that this is the only scenario): run the XMR Mining and after a day the system turns off. the system will not react to the start button, to start system it will need to disconnect the system from the network for several minutes.
Tested with KBL/IVB/HSW.
These microcode updates are not particularly buggy. If you get this kind of hardlock with them, look for the problem elsewhere.
