[TRLog] 286 Computer Question

[alan.kaul@att.net]

I've had the same problem with my RS 286 --- and when I 
asked the list, the response I got was some of the older 
BIOS would have to be replaced... and it's not worth 
it.  It is cheaper to buy a used computer with the right 
BIOS than install a new BIOS on an old machine (if you 
could find one that would be compatible).  So I bought a 
used 486.
