I used to run Warp on my Pentium 90 as well.. What a piece of ****.
I couldn't run any games, spent over $30 in toll charges to tech
support but nothing was ever fixed, I couldn't even use my General
Midi adapter and joysticks don't work in games under OS2.  Not to 
mention that my hard drive wouldn't stop accessing.  I am now running
under the pre-release version of Windows 95 (1-800-95PREVIEW for $27).
It is the best operating system I have ever seen.  My windows apps
actually run faster (I have 8 megs ram BTW) then they did under Win 3.1
The cool thing is WIN95 actually changes the look of your win3.1 apps
to conform with the overall scheme of things.. makes it much easier to
use.  Windows 95 is going to be the most successfull operating system
because so many people already use windows... Try out the pre-release,
it's a beautiful thing. 
 
Just my humble opinion.......... :)
