* The most insidious possibility is that the Windows 95 kernel is not fully
*compatible with
* today's Pentiums. Tom McNally quoted an anonymous Award Software
*BIOS engineer: "This
* seems to be an ongoing problem with Win95 and the external
*cache. Until they come out with
* a patch or fix for this, you may need to leave that disabled."
*Although you can usually disable
* a system's external cache through the BIOS configuration screen,
*this can make your system
* noticeably slower. I'll have more on this in two or three weeks.
