Cyrix compatibility

I just found out today, that the Cyrix 6x86 chips will not work with NHL
'97 either (my buddy has a 166+), on the box the requirements say
minimum PENTIUM 75.  When you try and run the game you get an invalid
instruction code error.   So maybe Nascar 2 might end up the same way,
Pentium only.

Wrong...Adam has already stated that the Cyrix problem has already been fixed
and will work fine in the final verison.
