Hi! I've just bought an AMD K7-600 on which I was eager to install Win 98, and then Rebel to see the nps count rise to the sky! Well, surprise... After putting the program to work analyzing some positions in my games, I can see that the nps count barely goes over 55,000 on average. On my old computer (a P-100 with MS-DOS) I was getting an average nps of about 30,000. With the K7, I was expecting a number more like 150,000. I'm also unable to run Rebel from the DOS prompt. I get a memory page fault and a message saying that there's not enough memory to run the program (I have 128 mb installed)... If there are people here using Rebel on a K7, I would like to know what kind of performance (nps) they get, and if the poor showing I'm seeing on my machine is related somehow to a configuration or bios issue. Thanks, Francois Bertin
