I have found a couple of programs that worked fine on a 486, but
wouldn't work on a Pentium. This included an old DOS menuing program
I'd gotten used to called "Automaxx." Had gotten quite attached to the
way that system worked.
Didn't find a fix. Kept getting a "divide by zero overflow" error. The
one solution I found was to stop using that particular program.
