MFS2600KI PCT?

Does anyone know when Intel will be releasing the Platform Confidence Test (PCT) for the MFS2600KI? I find it rather strange as this is the first time I've seen Intel release motherboard with no PCT. How are they testing these platforms internally?

I know there was a PCT for the MFS5000SI and the MFS5520VI. But none exists for the MFS2600KI, yet.

I'll keep an eye out for one.

Yup. It's just really strange that there isn't one. ALL the other boards have PCTs.

PCT are included on the resource CD that came with the unit.

Or maybe not.

I just looked at the CD and it appears the KI specific folder is not on it.

I don't have a date for you, but you should see it on the download site "shortly". (a lot of folks on vacation so no idea what shortly is. I exepect after the first of the year.)

You may want to give this one a try. I believe it will work, but have not tried it.

Just tried this now. It's failing to load due to a missing runtest.ini file. I looked at the PCT download packages for other boards and they all have runtest.ini in the pct folder, this one does not.

I've extracted the runtest.ini from efi_pctx64_104.zip for the S2600xx boards and it's now running.

Good catch. The package had come through a mail filter that stripped out two files. I've put them back now, and the correct version should be live in two business days.

Looks like it's now live, thanks. Will mark this one as solved.
