dd method? Can you please tell me the exact command for that? I think 
the extra register dumping for ITE is totally incompatible with the one 
for SMSC which would explain your problems.

Yes. Or set all of them to the factory BIOS values at once and try 
again. Sometimes dependencies between various registers make it 
dangerous to change only a part of the values.
