problems with win95 on a 1.2G Tbird

[ggs]

I have just installed win95 sr2 on a Soltek MB with a 1.2GTbird proc. The install went fine - almost, but the system failed on its final reboot. There was a protected mode error in the IOS module. I have tried replacing everything with other h/w to eliminate h/w as the source of the prob (including the MB). The only way to stop the error was to reduce the external clock speed. I then installed Win98 over 95 and everything is fine!

Any ideas what might have been the problem?

Thanks

win95 was not built with higher clock speeds in mind
