I own a Taiwan made Supercom IBM clone and I have replaced
the 8088-2 cpu by a NEC-V20-8 cpu.
I used to set the 8088 to turbo by pressing CTRL - ALT - [+] (num)
If I do this now the computer hangs within a minute.
Now I have a tiny program from BYTE (april '87) to do that in soft-
ware but the cpu returns to 4.77 Mhz whenever I use the floppy-drive.

1. How can I get the cpu 'permanently' to 8Mhz
2. WHAT IS GOING ON ???!!!???
