PC benchmark s/w ?

I have recently setup a 486 DX2/66 pc from a combination of
old kit that I had spare and a few new bits and bobs. I am
concerned that the speed of the system is *very* slow. I 
suspect two things are causing this; the Conner 100mb 
hdd (17.5 ms) and the VGA card (forgot what it is).

I also have a 486 SX2/50 at home for work purposes and a
486 DX/33 in the office (along with 100's of others dotted
around at work).

To make comparisons of these can anyone suggest any good
benchmark s/w that works both under MS-DOS and Windows ?

(Shareware products would be prefered, but not essential)

Thanks in advance.

I can recommend System Information by Symantec and Checkit

Yes try pcbench version 9.0 and winbench 95. Both can be downloaded from
the following url:  http://www.dfw.net/~sdw/bench.html

Hope this helps
