I'm not convinced about "un-doable" in that the NetMos firmware doesn't
seem to be un-doable. In other words, a solution might need to
accommodate differences in two working systems. If one is just flat
broke, we're S(ertainly)OL.

This reminds me that at one time, way before over-clocking, one could
"improve" a motherboard with a new BIOS EPROM. Changing the BIOS on my
"bad" motherboard might shed light on the problem, but don't know
anything about modern BIOS's. Wikipedia's BIOS page opens a lot of
issues, such as not using BIOS at all?
