There's no need for it, once the modded BIOS is installed. I've never done it and never will either. IMHO it's a total waste of time, especially with TTAV's BIOS available. YMMV. You're right, changing the BIOS does sound like less work and less risk. That's what I will do instead, I think. Thanks ...

Instead install TTAV134's BIOS from here: https://archive.org/details/T43SLIC2.17UNo1802No2010ByTTAV134 That certainly sounds safer, and that's probably what I'll end up doing in the end. For future reference, though, I might have figured it. Does this sound right for me? ...

I recently bought an 'IBM ThinkPad' branded messenger bag/case, and I was wondering if anyone had any info about it for me.
