[haarp]

Just stumbled across this. Maybe someone will find it interesting. It goes a little deeper than the usual BIOS mod...

I wish I could use Coreboot on my motherboard. I'm getting many restrictions which I can't break. The worst is that it's PCI-Express 1.0A but it's not compatible with PCI-E 2.0 (althrough there's simmilar motherboard (based on the same chipset) from Asrock and Asrock has put newer BIOS which supports PCI-E 2.0 graphic cards. I've got R7xx card which works just fine on that Asrock with newer BIOS (confirmed by many users) but it doesn't work with my ASUS (ASUS get dropped support for that motherboard at early 2007) so it only gets dusty on shelf. The second problem is that I've got 3GB RAM and I can use only 2.5-2.7GB because of AGP aperture
