Recent BP6 BIOS contains major flaw 
Posted 01/04/2000 - 7:00pm EST

We knew something was up just from the amount of Ask Ars! e-mail we've
received since ABIT released the PW BIOS update for the BP6.  As it turns out,
there's some PCI IRQ/ACPI problems lurking in it that are serious enough that
ABIT has pulled the BIOS from their website and "urgently suggests" that users
revert to NJ.
