Neues Mod-BIOS für ECS K7S5A

Die Jungs bei OCWorkbench haben wieder ein neues BIOS für das ECS K7S5A aus dem Hut gezaubert, das gegenüber der Herstellerversion mit folgenden Verbesserungen aufwarten kann:

- Adjust timing for stability and compatibility

- FSB modes reprogrammed:

"100/100 MHz" changed from 99.6 to 100.9 MHz
"133/133 MHz" changed from 132.77 to 133.9 MHz
No more underclocking by default!

- Several FSB modes added. New list of available modes:

100/100 MHz
100/133 MHz
133/133 MHz -> Default modes

66/66 MHz (H/W Trap)
112/112 MHz
124/124 MHz
138/138 MHz
150/150 MHz
166/166 MHz -> Already present in the "OC" bios

107/107 MHz
133/100 MHz
143/143 MHz
147/147 MHz
133/166 MHz
160/120 MHz
200/200 MHz

Please note that the "166 MHz no-boot issue" hasn't been dealt with
in this bios modification. It seems that bios timings need to be adjusted
to allow booting at such speed. This issue could also affect 160/120 and
200/200
settings.

- A few bios options have been enabled with amibcp. Please notice that none
of these
settings have been fixed or reprogrammed at all.

- PCI Latency Timer (some people has reported it doesn't work in ECS
020325, though)
- PCI IDE busmaster
- Offboard PCI IDE card (might be useful for people using IDE/SCSI cards)
- PCI slot #1 to #4 IRQ priority

- And last but not least, silly logo added!
