Do you clock your chip at 120 or 150 then? Mine is a 166+ (133) clocked
at 166MHz and it works perfectly. In Linux, I have the Cryix patches
compiled, but only for the reconition. I ran into trouble when I tried
some of the options.. perhaps because I have a IBM 6x86 instead of Cryix.
Also, I've never used the set6x86 program. What does it do? I've never
had heat problems with my high powered 12V jet fan.
