Got my hands on a Cyrix 386SX to 486 snap-on CPU upgrade. I installed the Cyrix CPU- its a snap on over the soldered 386sx and installed with a snap (excuse the pun). I restarted the computer and it booted fine, though I hadn't yet installed the Cyrix 486 cache SW. After boot-up I used SYSINFO7 to check my system config and SYSINFO7 correctly showed that I was running the Cyrix 486 at 33MHz. So far so good.
The moment I try to run the cyrix cache application, I get a loop of what appears to be error codes filling the screen (123F123F123F...) until I hit Ctrl-Break to break out of the loop. I don't see anything in the documentation about this kind of error - has anyone else come across something similar with the Cyrix upgrade?
Regards,
Mike
