Dragos, you must realize that Genius is coded mainly in assembler for the x86 Intel machines. Cyrix machines are not 100% compatible with this. Also some cYrix machines are overclocked. I probably used Genius 4 more often and on more different types of machines than most users and I never had problems. I never have used Cyrix machines though.
