Zipped Bios with fixed DSDT table

This is the original bios v.3315 with a fixed DSDT table (for those of you who
still have this aspire 5050). The sha256 checksum of the unzipped bios is
c6a8573d144d0e5bf42e87b396d6a8a98e0041b3e2c57a14018e874f44fff43e. 

I've recompiled the fixed dsdt with the microsoft asl 2.0.2b compiler because
windows doesn't like the output from intel's iasl (at least these acers 5050
don't like it). I've tested it with windows xp and 7 and everything is fine.
Linux also works fine.

Actually linux also works with the dsdt recompiled with iasl but in this case
none of the windows versions couldn't last more than 10 secs before the BSOD.

I've done this because I didn't like the error message about the faulty bios
with the patch posted here. This patch really did a great job but the real
problem was the buggy dsdt table not the acpi in linux.

Now this patch is obsolete for this bug. The credits should go also to those
who helped me recreate the bios.

And the wanring:
I'm not responsilbe for any demages caused by the use of this "modified" bios.
I've tested it on 2 machines and it works fine. Use it on your own risk!
