PREMIUM 386C WITH 386 TO THE MAX
PROBLEM: When installing "386 To The Max" on a Premium 386C the system
will hang during the second stage of the optimization process.
At this point there is no response from the keyboard and the
system must be rebooted. As a result the software does not
complete the installation. The BIOS version that demonstrates
the conflict is 3.01.
AFFECTED
SYSTEMS: AST Premium 386C.
CAUSE: Engineering has determined this to be a BIOS conflict with the
software.
SOLUTION: BIOS version 2.30 part number 500702-001 resolves the issue.
This is a downgrade in BIOS versions and will only function on
a Premium 386C motherboard part number 202184-001.
