I and a few other people would like to know how you did that (the dual
K5-166) on a motherboard with Intel's 430HX chipset. K5s/K6s (as well as
the Cyrix CPUs) support the OpenPIC protocol, which is incompatible with
your motherboard.

I somehow doubt that.

You got lucky. When I find dual Pentium motherboards with CPUs they sell
for US$150 in a heartbeat.
