[comp.sys.ibm.pc] REMAC: I can't get it to work on an 8MHz v20 "Turbo"

albert@endor.harvard.edu (David Albert) (05/27/90)

My XT-clone Turbo starts in 4.77Mhz and then I switch it to 8MHz
in software.  Apparently programs that mess with the timer chip
reset the machine to 4.77 (I've seen it happen with some other sound
programs, testing my CPU speed before and after running them), and
then REMAC crashes.  Is there any way to "lock" in the 8MHz rate so
that I can run REMAC?  Or is there an earlier/later version of REMAC
that will run on my machine?

Thanks.
