The latest T43P BIOS is 1.29, so the only way to go is down. There is no reason why you can't do this. Not sure what you mean by 'force'. There is no forcing involved. Just flash the BIOS normally.

Flash to a previous version, then flash back to 1.29.

No-1802 hack does not work on T43...

If you can get a really old BIOS (I think it's 1.03) you should be OK with most drives...

Good luck.
