A question from a friend who doesn't have net access:

Has anyone successfully replaced the 8088 CPU with a NEC V20 in an IBM PC
which has a PERSYST Time-Spectrum memory expansion card?  His experience
was the system would not boot; in fact, it didn't even get to the point of
putting a cursor on the screen.  If you have done this, any specific hints
would be appreciated.
