I believe only _PSV is a valid object. PSV0 & PSVA naming does not follow ACPI specification. Try double-click the PSV0 & PSVA object. Convert the PSV0 & PSVA values (for example; if 3000, it equal to 300Kelvin) to Celsius.

I'm pretty sure since I remember examine the BIOS twice. PBE "Setup Table" only show options/menu that linked to the BIOS menu. It doesn't show the hidden options. In the "Strings" window, you can see available strings in the BIOS, including strings to the hidden options.
BTW, TheWiz had an idea in his first reply to this thread that there might be hidden options in the BIOS regarding trip points, whose settings might override the ones that are set in the DSDT. Do you think that's possible (What PBE shows in the "Setup table" tool includes the hidden menus too?)?.

Now I'm sure that the AGESA modules are in UPDATE00.ROM after searching for "AMD!GESA" string with success. The Travelmate has version 4.4.0.0 and the Amilo has version 4.1.0.2

Intel Microcode Update Loader also initialize the CPU & load appropriate microcode update for that CPU. It just like a detection program, that's all. I shouldn't prevent the CPU from working in it full capability. However, I can't say for sure for AGESA since we don't have AGESA documentation.
There's a rather short article on wikipedia.
Quote:Miser 4.0 provides the following services:That doesn't say much in itself, but this BIOS changelog that I found has a rather interesting sentence involving the miser module.
- Initializes power-management devices and routines during POST.
- Utilizes chipset inactivity timers to monitor specified power-management events, such as keyboard, inactivity timeouts.
- Changes the power-management states of specific devices in response to specified power-management events, for example, by turning off the disk drive in response to a completed period of inactivity.
- Provides a window in Setup in which the end user can specify power-management options.
