I know it's not my computer and I'm of course not going to this meeting but... MJE is a long time Gentoo user and anyone who can put up with that is pretty much a dead cert for a quick BIOS tweak like this Neil. I remember you saying that it was a pain getting all the cables plugged in for your desktop but if you take a couple of decent well-lit phone camera pics of the back first (you could even label up the cables and ports if you're feeling super-organised) and then sling your box in the car for the meeting, I estimate that it will probably take him all of about 2 minutes tops to sort it for you. Especially as he's even prepared to bring along all the peripherals as well! It's funny to vouch for someone I've never met but MJE obviously knows what he's doing to be fair. As long as you can handle plugging the thing back in once you get it home it sounds like a win to me.
