Hi Ana Francisca, the moment I saw your note I remembered what to do..I think it was seeing the ASPECT RATIO that tricked me. I did the test for the QBICDEMO.3ds it was 2:14 with null display but 2"16 if I gave it a display. As for BIRDWALK.3DS it was 16" 09 sec with null display.. Obviously it is nice to see that my times with a 486-50 EISA w/16meg RAM are faster than your Dell 486DX2/50 with 34:54 but the difference between your QBICDEMO at 2:19 and mine at 1:16 is strange… When I see the time listed for your Dell P60 Pentium at 60Mhz of 36 sec and 8:15 sec I see a difference that is nice but can you explain why the halving of time for the Birdwalk is more than halved for the QBICDEMO mine: 2:14 yours 36sec ? Have you or any others who are dealing with the Pentium chip heard about heat problems that have not been solved yet? Regards Bob Smith
