So, I said and so I did (getting a defective controller that would randomly press L, solved with contact cleaner, and more dust that I've ever seen in any PC, also solved)
It's an 1.4 or 1.5 model (Focus video dac, 5101 kernel, Thomson drive), an Aladdin XT plus 2 clone is slowly on the way, and after installing it (which I understood to mean: connect BT to ground to always enable the chip, fit the LPC connector, optionally connect the extra wires for HDD LED) I should get an utility disc to reflash the chip with a non-1.6 bios and then install a custom dashboard?
So, my questions are: which disc should I use (I got the above advice from the documentation of Slayers 2.7, by the way) and which bios?
