I still have an AST Advantage 6033s 486SX/33 system that I bought in 1995 which is similar to yours, but more compact (AST Part No. 501540-001). The upgrade CPU socket is just holes in the board. The CPU upgrade socket supports the following processors (depending on jumper configuration): 80486SX …

From discussions that I have seen in other forums, it sounds like the render.cfg file needs to be in the Battlezone folder/directory. I'm guessing your setup did not create one (or it got deleted) somehow. That's the only thing I can think of, but the TrackFPS variable is what controls the FPS …

Open up the file and you should see a line like this: [Debug] ;TrackFPS = 1 //Display FPS and polygon count To get your frames per second and polygon …

Since you are using an ATI mach64 card, it might pay to see if ATI's M64VBE gives better results. M64VBE is a DOS TSR released by ATI to support the VESA BIOS Extension 2.0.
