Likewise, I am having no problems with my AMD processor. I am even
overclocking my CPU with a 75MHz bus speed which brings my 266 MHz processor
to 300 MHz.

        Hi Mauro.
        Try lowering you clock rate to something really small, like 133. If
it still
        crashes, try setting your chipset configuration to the lowest
possible
        setting. If it still doesn't work, try to turn off internal and/or
external
        cache (sloooow1!). Try moving your videoboard to a different slot.
If you
        are curious why I think this is a hardware problem, well, I have and
AMD too
        and these things seem to lower the level of crashes at home, should
work for
        you too. If none of these helps, reinstall POV, reinstall Windows
98, and if
        it still crashes, get a bazooka and pay Bill Gates a visit.

        Hope this helps.

    I don't think it's a problem with the hardware. I've the same processor
(AMD K6 300 3d Now) and encountered no problems with Pov 3.02 or PoV 3.1. I
think the problem is Win 98 (What other do you expect of a MS prodoct).
However I'm using Win 95 B with USB support. I don't know if it helps you,
but nevertheless I hope so.

    Yours
