This is weird.  I am running win3 on an old 6/8 Mhz 286 with 2 Mb RAM.
I've been having a problem with Ami Pro in that when I click on the
Display Preferences option my computer totally hangs requiring a cold
boot.  I have been screwing around with my win.ini, my installed options
under Ami Pro, my config.sys, my device drivers, etc for over a month
when yesterday I accidently hit the switch to slow the computer down to
6 Mhz.  Presto, everything works fine!  

What a drag, to have a program that won't work properly at 8 Mhz but works
fine at 6 Mhz.  Everything now works but it draws the windows so slowly
it almost looks like the computer is stoned.
