There is nothing wrong with my AMD processor.  Are you sure you did  
not put some old 6MHz boards into your new system?  It sure sounds   
like your "upgrade" did not include all of the peripheral equipment.

If your old boards are too slow for the new system board, try changing
the bus clock speed on your system board to accomodate the slowest
board you have (probably your video board or an MFM disk controller)
