I believe this would tell you if your BIOS was compiled using a Microsoft compiler: dmesg | grep MSFT You should get some output like: ACPI: FACP 3E6FC000, 0074 (r1 INTEL DG965RY 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: DSDT 3E6F8000, 3EDA (r1 INTEL DG965RY 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: APIC 3E6F7000, 0078 (r1 INTEL DG965RY 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: WDDT 3E6F6000, 0040 (r1 INTEL DG965RY 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: MCFG 3E6F5000, 003C (r1 INTEL DG965RY 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: ASF! 3E6F4000, 00A6 (r32 INTEL DG965RY 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: SSDT 3E6F3000, 01BC (r1 INTEL CpuPm 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: SSDT 3E6F2000, 0175 (r1 INTEL Cpu0Ist 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: SSDT 3E6AB000, 0175 (r1 INTEL Cpu1Ist 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: SSDT 3E6AA000, 0175 (r1 INTEL Cpu2Ist 330 MSFT 1000013) ACPI: SSDT 3E6A9000, 0175 (r1 INTEL Cpu3Ist 330 MSFT 1000013) Yes, my BIOS was also compiled on a Microsoft Compiler! :/ -- Regards, Dinesh A.
