Note what seems to me to be the key item is the MMX detection when the chips are not MMX. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 6 Jan 1998 16:08:07 -0800 (PST) From: Steven P. Donegan To: current@freebsd.org Subject: Problem with Tyan IIID and P166's Today I swapped my dual P100's for dual P166's (not MMX). All goes well until the 1st AP is launched and then it hangs. Put the 100's back and no problem. The only thing I noted is that the boot code seems to think the 166's have MMX capability - they don't. Any ideas? I'd really like to speed up a bit :-) (the 200's I had on order are back ordered and I just couldn't wait :-) TIA BTW - thanks to all of you who recommended the AH2940UW SCSI controller. It works like a charm.
