The recent discussion has mystified me. We have a variety of machines
with six (6) different customised version of AMI BIOS's. All machines
run Windows 3.0 8-14 hours a day without problem. The only supporting
argument I can think of is that these are all 386 machines - perhaps
the 286 versions have a problem. Otherwise it might just be people 
picking the wrong cause for their effect :-)
