The Intel DX4-100 overdrive cpu come with a built in voltage regulator.
Kingston  has a board, complete with an AMD DX4-100, that plugs into a 5V 486 
socket.  I know that there are 2 other adaptor boards made but cannot 
remember who makes them.  The Kingson boards are available, for *dealers* 
from Merisel for sure. I have some on order as we speak.

Cheers Richard
