Finding the Stepping Value of a Processor
The Silicon Graphics 320 visual workstation contains slots for two
processors—a primary processor and an optional secondary
processor. The chip revision—called stepping value—of the secondary
processor must match that of the primary processor. When ordering a
secondary processor, you will need to give the stepping value of the
primary processor. To find the stepping value:
1. Select Start > Settings > Control Panels from the Windows NT
task bar. Then double-click the System icon to open the System
panel.
2. Click the General tab and look below the Computer label for the
line that includes the stepping value. It should look similar to the
following:
x86 Family 6 Model 3 Stepping 4
In this example, the stepping value for the processor is 4.
