	The original poster probably didn't have the time to visit
www.lenovo.com, where the complete BIOS support including bootable 
media, the Thinkvantage software maintenance images, recovery media
and utilities, and software management tools are easily located and
downloaded.  For every thinkpad ever sold back to the 700 series.

	Lenovo nee' IBM support is second to none, but it's more fun to
post questions to Usenet then play yes but with the responses.

	Anyway, someone concerned with exact byte values in BIOS should
be capable of editing the file and reflashing the chip all by himself, hmmm?
