This document is organized into two sections. Section A documents information only on PV and corresponding Hot Fix releases. Section A is updated only when a PV release or a corresponding Hot Fix Release is made. “PV Build” column reflects the build done by adding code changes related to “Changes from Baseline Build (RCR#/DCN#)” to the build indicated by “Baseline Build#”.

Section B documents information on weekly Video BIOS builds. Build numbers in blue indicate change in build from last week for a specific chipset.

The VBIOS was programming the wrong 60Hz timing table for a 720x400 resolution mode, resulting in the incorrect timings for some VGA modes. The CH-7021 encoder does not support a border in the timings, so the 640x480 VESA modes were not being programmed correctly in this regard. Solution: To fix VGA mode problem we need to use the IBM VGA 70Hz timing table. To fix the problem for VESA 640x480 mode we need to replace the timing table with the one that is no display boarder. | GM965/PM985/GL960 | 1362
