hello jim... tried again your solution recommendation with reserving memory ranges...
tried to force the 5700 to use only one set of ranges with reserving all other free ranges, but no success... instead windows won't boot up anymore... come back to previous behaviour after unlocking all ranges again in safe mode... :/
