I never get that lucky! I am glad though AMD is back in the processor market

I had it backfire on me when I gambled with my Phenom 550.

The motherboard would randomly unlock the 2 bad cores even though they were actual bad cores and not deactivated good ones.

Yes, it should be! I blame it to sleep deprivation! There is no way to change it is there ?
