[comp.sys.zenith.z100] z151 with WILDFIRE

gh013@unocss.UUCP (Scot Brown) (01/28/89)

does anyone out there have any comments or experience with an excellarator
package for the hz100 series called WILDFIRE??  The Package is a hardware
piggyback board for the cpu board that is supposed to speed up operation
from 4.77MHz to roughly 8MHz.  I installed the board to run on my z151 and as promised the machine does run considerably faster.   
    But, at either high speed or low speed i am not able to run 
Microsoft Word 4.0 or format a disk.  Software Wizardry has told me that
they will be sending a patch for the format.
    Has anyone else had this problem or heard of anyone else with this 
problem.  If so, did the format patch work or should i just scrap the
whole thing.  Really at a point of in descion and would like input from
anyone on the topic.

   Thanx in advance
        Scot Brown
