You need 60ns or faster ram to run with a 66MHz memory bus.  You're
75Mhz processor ran at 50MHz, and if you run your 100MHz processor
as if it were a 90MHz processor, you'll run at 60MHz (just squeeks
by for 70ns RAM).  If you upgrade your RAM or lower your bus speed,
your problems will dissapear.
