Thanks Anatoly,

My friend also suggested me to check whether the mother
board enable the PCI_COMMAND_MASER_ENABLE, because some
mother boards don't enable it and he thought it might cause
this problem.

The reason of the problem might be a conflict between DMA
and cache, since the problem happens as a 32 bytes block.
It contains first 8 bytes twice, second 8 bytes and thirdd 8
bytes and loses fourth 8 bytes.  I'm not sure about it and I
won't check it, sorry.  So, this is just information about
the possibility.

Anyway, the problem is fixed by changing the mother board.
I used FIC VA-503+ (using MVP3 and having 1M cache), and it
made the problem.  I changed it to ABIT TX5, and it works
fine.  I'm not sure whether this is a general problem or
specific problem on my mother board.  This is also just
information.
