But this is not perchance the same Award BIOS as mine that totally
jams if one tries to disable Video BIOS shadowing?  After this, my
BIOS refused to do anything after testing the memory.  Since the CMOS
is one of the Dallas chips with internal battery, it wasn't even
possible to blow the CMOS and start over from scratch.

(Just my DM 0.23, as a warning for other people.)
