System Configuration 2-31
Does Intel track serial numbers?
Generally not, other than related to the manufacturing process. Intel does not, in
the absences of advance and express consent of a user, collect serial number
data which is otherwise identified with a user.
Which programs and/or websites currently use the processor serial
number?
You can find a complete list of programs which can take advantage of the
processor serial number and other new capabilities of the Pentium III processor
at http://www.int el.com/pen tiumiii/utilit y.htm.
How can I tell if my processor serial number is turned on?
The vast majority of Pentium III processor-based systems ship with the
processor serial number enabled. The control utility allows you to check the
status by:
Viewing the icon itself. The disabled icon shows a red circle with a
white “x.”
Clicking the task tray icon and selecting the “Status” menu item. Or you
can select the menu from the tool tip shown when you position the mouse
over the task tray icon.
