Hmmm. Interesting. Now that I think more about it, I don't think I've had 
a problem since upgrading my mother board and CPU either. In my case 
though, it was Explorer getting the GPF, and my original CPU was an Intel 
486dx-33 overclocked to 40mhz (didn't seem to be causing any problems 
before) and I upgraded to a newer motherboard and an AMD 486dx-80.

As for noticing a speed difference though... I'm not surprised that you 
can't tell the difference between 80 and 100 mhz. I DOUBLED my CPU speed 
from 40 to 80, and usually only notice the difference if I use a stop 
watch. I think it is just my 8megs of RAM and older hard drives that are 
causing the slow down. The CPU speed doesn't have that large of an impact.
