My current motherboard is a 25 Mhz board and I am running a 20 Mhz CPU with a 16 Mhz math coprocessor. The coprocessor is about 1 week old to me (I bought it used) and the shop where I bought it at said it should be fine on a 20 Mhz machine. I assume that the motherboard is running at 20 Mhz due to the CPU. I checked my crystals on the motherboard and I have two. On is a 40 Mhz and the other is a 50 Mhz. Any ideas? My manual doesn't tell me much except what kind of cache memory I should use and what size of SIMM modules to use, niether of which my motherboard can except. So, the manual is pretty much usless. Thanks! Greg
