Well, if you have some idle time you could give that a try :).

Yeah, the problem is, we want to have this working for the majority of
machines out there. I'm assuming there should be some kind of EEPROM
memory available for BIOS to store its config or so which we could
hijack. But I don't know for sure - I'll have to research this a bit.
And besides, interfering with BIOS is almost always bound to fail.
Hmmm...

Thanks.
