It isn't really practical to try to provide info on all BIOS options. We tried with http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/c122.html#AEN124 and http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html#sh1 but people rarely read the documentation, and even particular manufacturers make random changes from one BIOS release to the next. Again, randomly copying .config files and not checking what might have changed is asking for trouble. What made you expect that the .config for a particular kernel would work on another kernel?
