No I don't really have the time to reinstall Linux again :)

Unforetunately my BIOS, AmiWinBIOS doesn't have such settings, I have the
DRAM running at 60ns, and yes I get errors when running at 70ns also.  It
wasn't until this problem because serious enough that I discovered it was
set at 70ns not 60ns like the memory is rated at.

To be honest I'm sick to death of Duke3D, I bought the Australian version
and did the little modifications to it :)

I'm pretty sick of Quake too, the end of level guy is tooooooo simple.

Oh well back to reading new to try and find some more things to try
