Ultimate Boot CD 3.4 fails on a new machine, a Dell Latitude D820 (using the latest BIOS, A04). ISOLINUX 3.07 gives this error: "Loading spec packet failed. Extremely broken BIOS detected."

To duplicate: boot from ultimate boot cd, select hard disk tools, then select IBM/Hitachi Drive Fitness (on second page of hard disk tools).

The error does not occur when booting from Hitachi's version of Drive Fitness on a CD.
