Also check the fan speed. High RPMs cause vibration which has been
known to derail bits from the CPU. If you open your case and see a lot
of "dust" that's probably extra lost bits caused by vibration. Running
your fan at the wrong speed can eventually completely deplete your CPU
of bits, effectively turning it into a 16MHZ Z80.

Ah, Z80... Now, that brings back memories...

Yup, from High School. I wonder where my Z80 went to (last I checked
they were being labeled "TI-86" :-)).
Of course, I also have a Z80 (TI-86) emulator on my PC that sees -
marginally - more regular use.

Yeah, I learned to program on those machines...

Heck, I *wrote* one for a school project (a Z80 emulator, that is).
