I used Vintage to flash MSI chip replacing it on the fly. All the
utilities failed to work, I had to boot machine many times, each time
replacing chips. So, when it finally happened - I was too happy to 
record log-file :) Just beleive me :)

I am not a code guru, so I just copy/pasted P5LD2 strings as the most
close one, honestly I was sure it IS P5LD2, but noticed 27b8/27b0
difference later. Sending patch I wasn't sure my only word will
state this enough to approve motherboard for entire project :)
