 kvm: qemu: regenerate bios for ACPI _SUN method

 This particular bios.bin prevents my Windows Vista from booting.
 The boot hangs while still in character mode, as I posted a few
 days ago, and using the previous bios fixes that problem.
This has been confirmed by George Kiagiadakis:

Using the bios.bin from kvm 66 with kvm 82 fixes his Vista startup
problems as does using --no-kvm.

I'm going to dowload Vista SP1 and hope that the bug-fixes will
cure this problem and the lack of network connection as well.
(My Vistall install disk is the original RTM version.)
