that actually doesn't help as much as you might think. I don't have a good answer for this problem. But we can try to put the chipset names there.
Probably we should put a link to the vendor's web page for the mainboard. If the vendor is doing something stupid with their web page, we have no way to fix it.
Actually it will help. I have 2 kobian (P4M266a and P4M266v) boards using different sound chips and one with capability to boot from s mart card (whatever that is). Inetrchanging the bios produced the additional boot capability. Everthing worked fine even under windose (which afaik uses the bios during runtime). Also buying boards might be a little easier. And in any case it would not hurt.
