You're not going to see much, if any, speed improvement with the added memory
with W98. I would suggest that you _seriously_ consider a step backward and load
W95SR2 in lieu of W98.

The 560 you have has no L2 cache and you're up against that limitation running
W98. With the 64MB you're adding and the 8MB on the motherboard, that unit will
run very, very well under W95.

Just a suggestion.

James
