Scumbria, re:<I've only had to reboot my PII/Windows NT system once (so far.)>

The so-called Win95 OSR2 on K6-2-350+ CPU imcompatibility, according to AMD
1. Does NOT exist with original release of WIN95 or with WIN98
2. Does NOT result in problems once the system is booted, it only occasionally prevents initial booting, it does not cause reboots.
3. Occurs because Microsoft ignored Intel's and AMD's programming advice to avoid timing loops based on instruction execution times.
