Hello net people.I have installed the V20 chip, made by NEC, into my PC
 compatible. I have noticed the following things:

   1) The increase of speed was noticable, that's good enough for me.

   2) Every time that I wanted to reboot the system by pressing ALT+CTRL+DEL
       the system would not reboot. So I had to turn the power OFF and ON
       every time I wanted to reboot the system - not convenient.

I decided to leave the V20 into the computer because I liked the increase of
 speed but I still have to turn the power OFF and ON to reboot the system.
I am not sure what causes the failure to reboot, but I think that  the
 problem has something to do with my BIOS. If anyone knows anything about it
 reply. Thank you in advance.

                                       Nicolas Chrissakis
