I updated that bios the same day it was released.. (i missed the actual upload with some hours) It only fixes what it says in the change log =3DP... And i had just been in contact with them pointing them to information from Allen Martin about the pin2 that should be pin0 bug and nothing has happened. Now i have to find where it was that i sent that bugreport again, since the common "international" support thingy dosn't work, and hasn't for some time =3DP. --=20 Ian Kumlien -- http://pomac.netswarm.net --=-LGfvPq9TOltQmOsxe7R6 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBAnKbS7F3Euyc51N8RAhebAJ4rkZz2XMNar5UgaqyfhVSJDu2H7ACgpUUg Ewx4icrFfjJ0gP6kE29/1MM= =3tt1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-LGfvPq9TOltQmOsxe7R6--
