I have the same chip. Stepping 1.4

Here's mine:

processor : 0
cpu family : 6
model : 6x86MX 2.5x Core/Bus Clock
vendor_id : CyrixInstead
stepping : 1.4
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
sep_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 1
wp : yes
flags : fpu de msr cx8 pge cmov mmx
bogomips : 166.71

Maybe your chip is broken?
