I had seen some of these problems on some of the earlier Cyrix 6X86 CPU's, and
the way around this, was to go into your CMOS settings, and turn off the
Internal, and external cache during the install process. Afterwards you could
change the settings back. I believe with the Cyrix, it was the Pipeline cache
that caused the problems. Anyway, this may be worth a try...Also you may want to
set your Memory timings to the settup defaults, as the speed of the Ram timings
may be too aggressive.
