Problem Possible Cause Suggested Solution
The system hangs after
the RAM test. But if the
external cache is
disabled in the BIOS
setup, the computer
works properly.
•
The board’s BIOS doesn’t
support the (Cyrix) 5X86
CPU’s 16KB write-back
design or the external
cache architecture
conflicts with the CPU’s
internal cache.
•
Depending on the
computer’s cache size (see
the documentation that came
with the board), change the
external cache from 256KB
to 128KB or from 64KB to
32KB. Because the (Cyrix)
5X86 CPU’s 16KB on-chip
cache is a four-way set
associative write-back design,
your system performance
will still be better than a
traditional cache design, even
after reducing the on-board
cache size.
