  I have a Vega 486 motherboard with a new version of AMI BIOS. One
selection in the setup program is "Bus Clock Selection", with the
possibilities of 0-7, and AUTO. Apparently this is a new "feature" of
the bios since it is not, along with a few other things, documented
in the manual. What does it do? I seem to get slightly differing
winmark and disk i/o ratings so I assume it is changing the bus speed
from 8.33 Mhz upwards. But does anyone know which clock ratings are
associated with which number 0-7? Or I am completely off the mark?
Thanks.
