Sorry for taking so long to answer but I got a one-week flu and still 
had to do my research duties :s

Anyway, as a matter of fact, I do have some thoughts. If you don't mind, 
the tests I would like you to make will be listed at the end of the message.

So, first of all, I indeed would like to see your vbios and I also would 
like to know the bitfield of some regs.

The easiest way to do both is to grab and compile the envytools[0].

To grab your vbios, please do the following:
nvagetbios > nv4c_vbios.rom

To get the bitfield of the thermal-related regs:
nvascan 15b0 10 > nv4c_therm_scan

Please send me both of these files and I'll see what I can do.

Sorry again for the very late answer (I'm slowly getting better).
