Actualy, it was pretty simple
0x7c00 - All devices enabled, You play with first 4 bits only.
Cos there are 4 devices, so you have any combination of 4 bits. Set bit to 1
to turn off the device, bit 0 to enable it.
This is the device list:
1. Multimedia Audio controler
2. Modem controler
3. Ethernet sis930 controler
4. USB controler.
For example, to turn off Ethernet + USB it would be:
0x7c0c -> 1100 in binary (first 4 bits)
To turn off Multimedia audio :
0x7c01 -> 0001 in binary
and so on... maybe there are more detail, but this is enogh for me, Ollie,
again thanks!
