I hope you mean to replace the V20 with an 8088, not a 8086 (same 40-pin
IC, ya know) (-:

The V20, as noted, seems to act bizarre with RAM, this may be the cause
of your Z-205 (which is rated for 5MHz, zero wait states with stock parts
and configuration settings) problems.

Early versions of Z-100 MULTIPLAN will crash during use with a V20.  It was
nasty, as it crashed during use (probably after inputting a lot of data)
and not straight off.   Later versions did not have a problem.

Cheers,
Gern
