Hopefully this is the correct place for this post, if not please move it.

I have a IBM ValuePoint 486 that I'd like to slow down using SetMul so I can play some speed sensitive games. I copied SetMul to my hard drive (a CF card) and ran it without any parameters just to see if would run and this is what I saw. Then my hard drive starting continually hitting. After about 30 seconds of this I shut it off because I didn't want it to thrash my CF card. Is this normal behavior for SetMul and I just need to wait or did something go wrong? To me it looks like something crashed, but I'm not really able to make much sense of the output.

SetMul doesn't work with 486SX ?
You may have more luck with the attached thing...

This seems easier. I'll give these a shot.

Well I get the Internal Cache Disabled/Enabled message so I guess it works. I'll have to do some real testing later.
