Dankzij een 'foutje' in de PIII werkt deze processor niet met i810 mobo's. Op zich niet zo'n probleem, aangezien die i810 vooral voor Celeron systemen was bedoeld, maar pc boeren die van plan waren om goedkope PIII + i810 systemen te gaan bouwen hebben pech gehad:
An erratum that affects the Pentium III's SSE or Streaming SIMD multimedia instruction set is keeping Intel's new 810 chip set from working with the chip.The erratum, called MaskMovQ, is a Pentium III glitch. And while Intel has created a workaround for it, the 810 doesn't support it, making it incompatible with the Pentium III. Intel isn't supporting the workaround in the chip set because the 810 was not designed or validated to work with the Pentium III, said Intel spokesman Dan Fancisco.
