Hell Eloy.


I am one that "prefers" cyrix.. Ok if it is a dlc processor. I recoment 
you to disable only the external cache. The problem seems to be between 
the external cache controller and the dma logic.
I have such a machine like yours with the external cache disable and the 
system works OK. Remember also to enable parity check on the memory banks.
and check for slow refreshes option on the setup menu.
Hope this will help.
