After DL'ing the demo the 'read me' file says minimum req Pentium /16
Meg Ram. I have the 16 Megs of Ram but no Pentium. Trying the program
anyway with my AMD 5x86 133 the demo crashes at the "drive" selection
with a "Dos4GW error message".
Is there a workaround (or other cause)or will it not run on the AMD CPU?
Anyone running the Nas2 Demo with an AMD 5x86 133?
Any help appreciated...
Thanks

I tried it too.... Yeah. I know. It says "Pentium required" and I thought it
might have been that way so you'd have enough speed to run it. Since we (AMD133
users) know that the AMD133 blows the doors off the P60, I tried it.
Mine crashes and does a code-dump to the screen. Consistent. Same place.
It looks like the program is using at least some Pentium specific code. I do hope
they will make the final version run on a 486 - as some of the 5x86 models are
running 160 mhz now. Certainly enough horsepower.
