bx2i1012.zip - P2B BIOS Ver. 1012. 04/20/2000
^^this is the *latest* BIOS revision for this particular MB I have. I think I 
probably installed it the same week. I really *should* have said in the first 
report, that I didnt discount a possible BIOS bug. I meant to anyway :)

This Asus MB does in fact, have the Award 4.51PG BIOS, rev 1012 of course.

Im glad I was fairly specific in my report, this looks like a match to me. 
Would you mind terrribly updating to this patchversion? :)

Cheers

Not at all; I'll make sure the next rev of the ISO includes the new isolinux.
