Hi May,
   I just wanted to expand on your finding.  On Rangeley, the USB 
buffers MUST be pushed low because the USB controller isn't allowed to 
write into the 0xe0000 - 0xfffff area.  The processor is the only device 
that can write to that area.  The restricted area might be larger - I 
can't recall.  This restriction on Rangeley is the main reason that the 
MALLOC_UPPERMEMORY option exists in SeaBIOS.  (Thanks Kevin.)
