- There is nothing wrong with my AMD processor. Are you sure you did
- not put some old 6MHz boards into your new system? It sure sounds
- like your "upgrade" did not include all of the peripheral equipment.

- the bus clock speed on your system board to accomodate the slowest
- board you have (probably your video board or an MFM disk controller)
