It's a motherboard controller.  They rarely use an SEEPROM to store
configuration information.  It's usually done by using the same NVRAM
required to save PNP information.  What you should be concentrating on
is getting the probe to recognize that the chip was initialized by a
BIOS and then use the left over BIOS information.
