Huh? Isn't that the cause of the problem anyway with not 32-bit clean ROM? I
mean, I've thought that because the ROM were not 32-bit clean, there were
some problems addressing some functions properly that are loaded from the
ROM. I thought that Mode32 was re-arranging those functions so the machine
would look as if 32 bit clean, even though it wouldn't?
