Fair enough, so we'll use 0x204,5 and separate code. I assume it will
speed things up, have to test it in a day or so. As it is, the 5 sec
delay makes compression hard to live with.
I am also assuming the Via C3 has the variable MTRRs, that may not be a
correct assumption. The Intel book says P6 family.
