Then unfortunately this patch alone is useless. :( What would work is treat this as a 2000/XP bug and use _OSI to probe for Vista/2008 or later ("Windows 2006" and "Windows 2006.1", says drivers/acpi/acpica/utosi.c). Perhaps on top of this one. Paolo _______________________________________________ SeaBIOS mailing list SeaBIOS@seabios.org http://www.seabios.org/mailman/listinfo/seabios
