And which data are you RADING from SDRAM?

You wrote you are using a BDI2000 - you can use  it  to  single  step
into  the  code  in  SDRAM.  What  does  this give? And if you get an
exception - where does it happen? What was the incorrect data?

You got the tools - use it to analyze your problem [or just save  the
time   and  re-check  your  SDRAM  initialization  against  the  chip
manufacturer's manual; at least this is what I would do if I  was  in
your position.]
