We've seen some of those cheap "router PCs" with bad broken BIOS. There were a few all using the same common motherboard that had stuck GPEs a few years ago. Since most of these machines don't have a manufacturer website for BIOS updates, tracking down an updated BIOS without risking bricking the machine is sorta a pain. You get what you pay for. -ml
