Well I'd like to know if this is a socket. It doesn't seem like it to 
me... but I imagine with the right tool I would be removable. I have 
taken a picture with a web camera. It is a bad picture but I think it 
is clear enough that someone familiar with BIOS's would recognize it. 
So if you would be so kind as to check that would be great. the address 
is http://www.gnat.ca/photos/SBC.jpg . Let me know if it looks like a 
removable and I'll start getting the code up and ready to try. Just as 
a little description, the square piece in the middle is the AWARD PNP 
chip and directly below it is the DiscOnChip 2000.
