My Pantera P90 Bios dated 11/03/94 most certainly has the AMD 94 something or another chip.

I understand that the "Gosling" motherboard may have the adaptec chip, and may actually only be 8 bit connected, but this is just what I have heard on the net again. eric -- --- Eric Wampner eww@crc.com Computer Systems Administrator Orlando Group Coleman Research Corp
