Same thing happens on my machine
(386/20 Micronics motherboard, Phoenix BIOS, unknown chipset - not
C&T)

The machine *does* reboot if I flip the dipswitch to use ROM
relocation in hardware, but then I wind up with less memmory (384K go
the relocation scheme) and the Video BIOS of my ATI V.W. is suddenly
in two places at once... (weird? yes!)
