Zeus,
I have a 486 66MHz made by West Coast Computer which went under. It's a "green pc". It's supposed to save power, guess that idea didn't catch on <gg>. I want to upgrade the chip but don't know if the architecture of my computer would make a 586 chip inneffective because of some other limitations. I think it's standard BIOS with VESA bus. What should I consider before I do the upgrade? I have 24 MB of memory (parity). I also need a HD as my 426MB HD is nearly full. Thanks, Bob
