Had a v6.34 smp -advmethods WU fail on my 6 core phenom2, and there was a post at overclockers.com of the same WU failing, so I thought I'd let you know.

Thanks for the report. It was, indeed, a bad WU. I've reported it and it will be stopped at 8am. In the 11 days it has been in circulation, a LOT of people received it but you're the first to report it.

keep getting this bad work unit, please delete!
