I am running the P166 on a cheapo mother board, runs 95 ok.  I had a problem for 
a while though with my 486dx2-80.  The problem seemed to be a 1.2 gb Samsung drive
I received as a warranty replacement.  Both drives seemed to "lose" their os installs.
I made it a data drive and no problems. Using a Maxtor 540 as the boot drive.  I know 
it sounds strange, but it is working now....
