My brother recently bought a MacII, and is bothered by how much of his Mac software bombs on it. Could somebody please give me directions on how to turn off the 68020 instruction cache? I'm hoping that'll help. Can it be done without an assembler? Since neither of us is very experienced with a Mac, a great deal of detail would be greatly appreciated. -- Phil Krueger (phil@wisc.edu or phil@crys.wisc.edu)
