hope to see your patched-bios site updated soon.
wonder why nobody collects all patched bios files. okay,some of them might be not tested, but, hey, who cares anyways?
flashing a modified bios is always some kind of risk (as flashing UNpatched bios is,too) but i think who does knows what he's doing..

i surely know whom to ask if i need another bios patched :)

At least, the ones we patched and that someone has tested to some degree. There's another guy out there somewhere.....
..and it can take a couple of days for ours to hit the index.
