I made the interrupts self contained, with no output.  The VGA ROM
initialization returns, but there is no output to the screen.  At least the
screen turns black on an int10 now, though.

The only differences between the PCI configuration registers now is that v3
has a little larger space for VGA and SERR is set.

Thanks,
Myles
