The VBIOS is composed of, among other things, a bunch of tables. There
are pointers to where those tables live in the headers. This is saying
that the pointers to a few of the tables are invalid. If this is not a
laptop and does not have a DVI/HDMI output, it should be of no
concern. Further, if things work OK, I wouldn't worry about it either.
