I recently have built my computer system and everything seems to work
fine except for the speed changes on the system. The turbo button and
MHz display on the midtower case work fine. WHen pressed, the turbo
light lights up and the 33 comes on the display. Depressed the 8 shows
up without the turbo light, but the system doesnt seem to really care.
I have heard that the AMI (Mark II) motherboards may not work with the
turbo buttons. If thats the case, is there anything I could do to get
it to work with it? But aside from that, ctrl alt -/+ doesn't even
work! The turbo button is one thing, but it doesnt accept the keyboard
command? Reset by switch and keyboard work fine, but it just doesnt 
like turbo. I was told that it could possibly be a jumper or some sort
that is keeping it in high gear. I can't seem to find this addressed
in my motherboard manual. (The case manual is worse, a flimsly piece
of paper with non-understandable figures).
Any help on this matter is appreciated! I will give summaries on
request or post if there is demand.
