OK! icchan-san, I did flash it with v5.17 MOD Bios. At first it started acting weird, when I selected Onboard or integrated graphic card from the BIOS. It doesnt boot at all, not even with my current Windows Vista hard drive. I thought oh oh...however then I popped in Asus video card and a new hard drive which I previously installed Os X on and previously having problem booting BEFORE the BIOS MOD,

Boot up the pc, went to BIOS to select PCI for graphic card from the BIOS, this time when I rebooted, it gets me to Os X setup. I finally get to the Mac Desktop <-Windows term ha ha> and everything. I got network connection, no sound at the moment (I have Realtek ACL8888/1200 as my Audio hardware from Everest under Vista), firewire is enable from the Bios but has not been tested. I downloaded the ACL888 driver from your post, but how do you install the driver from Os X?

You can installed with OSX86 tools or Kext helper.

About your weird thing in your BIOS, did you try to select the PCI-E 16x cuz the onboard on is disabled...
