Subject: Windows side agrees that lowmem corruption is a problem too

Remember the lowmem corruption problems that lead the code that displays this to be added to Linux:AMI BIOS detected: BIOS may corrupt low RAM, working around it.which was IMO way too broad. Good news, the Windows side agree that this is a problem too:http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/platform/firmware/mem-corrupt.mspx
