I tried this.  The first time I rebooted after changing the BIOS, the 
machine booted okay, but after the msk card had passed about 200k, the 
entire machine locked up hard, and I had to power-cycle to get it back.

After that, it behaved as previously -- after passing about 200k total, 
the card hangs and there's an interrupt storm.
