I currently have an 8088 10MHz system and I'm considering buying a 386SX motherboard to upgrade. Could someone tell me which of my peripheral cards I can still use with the new processor? I'm not worried about my monographics card or internal modem. But can I continue to use my hard and floppy disk controllers, or do I need to buy new ones? (BTW, I know that keeping my old, slow disk will reduce the performance increase I get with the new motherboard. I hope to partially compensate by going to a 1:1 interleave and getting extra RAM for a cache.) Thanks, Bob Alexander boba@hpwala.hp.com
