If you set your motherboard at 40MHz what does the BIOS report the CPU to be ? My motherboard say a Cyrix DX2 running at 75MHz. Strange that, because it would mean that the un-doubled speed is 32.5MHz and I have never heard of anything like that. The conclusion I have reached is that the motherboard just can't hack the M7 processor. Andy -- ZX81 -> 800XL -> 520ST -> PC. Where did I go wrong ?
