I recently bought a new motherboard and Cyrix 6x86 PR200MX. The first motherboard userd the Opti chipset and would not work at all and while I do not remember the exact failure mode it sounds like you may be seeing the same thing. I took the mother board back and got one that used the Via chipset and that works great.
