However, when I use wintune95, it scores just bellow a pentium 133. Now this could be because wintune does not read the cyrix properly, or maybe my cmos or jumpers are not configured optimumly.I heard you mention about overclocking. Please, If someone can give me info on how I can speed up my CPU, I would most appreciate it!! Also, where can I get that norton utility from? thanks!
