Re: AW: [Bochs-developers] First time user - Installation, setup, and usage feedback

Thats much better.  Thanks.  I have noticed though
that Bochs takes 90+% of my processor (Windows task
manager) even though Top is indicating 90+% idle. 
Possibly another config issue but so far Bochs doesn't
play nicely on WXP.

BTW, I installed on a WME box and bximage behaved much
better.  Still struggling with a Redhat install
though.  I will keep going for a while longer.
