<Yes. I've been using a 386DX with 128k cache with Win3.1 and Netscape 3.0.

Either buggy VGA driver or not enough ram. I found NS would do that with
8mb and with 12mb it wouldn't!
<Haven't tried much newer, it doesn't seem right to require a 300MHz

<I did adjust several things, like remove smartdrv's "buffering" for the
HD,
You do want it to cache on read from the HD, it helps. The exception is
with some IDE and SCSI drives there is hardware caching and smartdrv
just adds software to slow things down.
