** - Some weird features of this board (also apply to Zida TX100(-3D) boards):

1) The user manual for Zida Tomato TX100 states that it supports Pentium P54C (non-MMX), AMD K5, Cyrix/IBM 6x86, IDT/WinChip C6 processors, but seems like the motherboard doesn't support any CPU with core voltage of 3.3 V or higher. TRW site states that it doesn't support non-MMX class Pentium processors. Tested with Pentium 100 (P54C) - doesn't boot; with AMD K6-233, AMD K6-2-550 and AMD K6-III-450 - works normally.

2) This Apollo VPX chipset supports FSB frequencies of 88, 90, 95 and even 100 MHz. The maximum supported CPU frequency is 600 MHz (6 x 100 Mhz).

3) The board lacks any onboard L2 cache, so if you're not using any AMD K6-III CPU, forget about L2 cache.

4) To clear CMOS settings you have to hold <F> key during power-on/reboot. To redetect/reset CPU model you have to hold <J> key during power-on/reboot.
