Hi there

A friend of mine just bought a 486DLC, and we had trouble getting DOOM to
run.  It would usually get about 10 seconds into the demo before crashing.

Any experiences/anecdotes/antidotes?

Thanks,
Murray

Here's 2 things to try:
 
1) Get a CPU fan for the DLC. I know it sounds weird/impossible... but if you
keep the DLC cool, DOOM works perfect on it!
 
2) Update to v1.1. (This fixed the problems I was having with DOOM on MY
DLC/40. I would play for a while under v.99, but would lock up, A LOT!
After I updated to v1.1...smooth sailing ever since!
