Jack,

Can you expand on what this application changes in the PROM?  I have
an Intel motherboard which suffers from similar to what the OP has
reported (em0 watchdog timeouts), and was curious what the utility
does before firing up the board and trying it.  Others may be curious
to know, too.

Thanks, as always.
