Did you compile with -O2 flag. Without -O2 it gives you OK-message. I've
got B9730 series chip which seems to have this bug so it should be in
9720 series if it isn't introduced later.
I'll try your cpuid program tonight but last night I checked those
cpuid compinations and there isn't many places which could be different
if you check AMD documentation. I think there is some hidden method
in finding out different processor revisions under same stepping.
