I am trying to study the effects of caching (Pentum caching that is). I need to be able to turn off the cache. This can be done at boot time I know, but I have a need to do it during execution. Many systems I have worked with have some means of disabling the cache. Does anybody have any ideas? Even an negtive answer would help Cheers, Tony
