All Socket 7 CPU's are 586's. Even if they have some 686 features. There are even S370 586 CPU's. (VIA C3 / IDT) You can call the Winchip 2/3/Cyrix III Core also a "pimped" 486. 😁 They are designed for Low Transistor Count and use legacy FPU... like a 486 😁

Sometimes I wonder how Intel survived around the Millennium. Hyping on RAMBUS was a disaster, 820 chipset with RDRAM->SDRAM converter was a disaster, 845 chipset with single channel SDRAM was a disaster, and the biggest among all, the early Pentium 4. Don't forget the Itanic :D Intel has more legs …

The AudioPCI works in Windows 3.x, just use the Windows 3.x Soundblaster Driver and Adlib Driver. You have to load DOS Driver ^^
