[plug] Two obscure problems

[Simon Scott]

	Sorry, english is such an ambiguous language :)

	So both your video and ethernet are onboard? yucko. You need to get
into the bios! Hopefully it will have settings for the irqs the onboard
components use. You might have to set PNP OS to 'No' as well....

	That's the problem with "on-board", you can't switch slots.  And it
	won't let me go into the BIOS for some reason I can't determine.
I'll
	try taking the battery out.
