Thanks for posting the link. I've just bought one to go in my Blizzard 1230-MkIV.

Frogger NG asks for an fpu. There is an fpu version of Vista and I think TFX also has an FPU only version. These are just some of the things I am looking forward to trying out.

I received my FPU yesterday and installed it this morning. Just very pleased to say it works!

So far I've tested it by running Quake (which needs an FPU) although it's unplayably slow.

I know, but I knew Quake requires the fpu to run and thought it a good test which would hammer the cpu and test stability.
