Need GeForce 3 (original) BIOS, monitor won't sleep properly!

Hey everyone:

I need the VisionTek GeForce 3 (original) BIOS -- either version 3.20.00.10.2 or 3.20.00.12. The .12 version I have is a engineering release. I forgot to save my .10.2 version before flashing it to .12 so I have nothing to go back on.

I've been trying to figure out why my GeForce 3 won't put the monitor to sleep properly and I have a feeling it's the BIOS of the video card not sending the right sleep signal to the monitor; it puts it in standby 1 mode (which has a 1-3 second response time). Doesn't save a lot of energy and shortens the life of the CRT, so I'm trying to find a way to REALLY put it to sleep. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

VisionTek Geforce 3
KDS AV-21TF
Windows XP

I know the KDS supports the active off mode because my G400 used to be able to put it to sleep in that mode.
 
I should mention that I tried that Russian site with all the nVidia BIOSs but the site has been down for me all day...
 
If it's for a Brooktree or Conexant TV out chip, would you mind dumping it to a file and sending it to me? Thanks!
 
Do you know if your monitor goes to sleep completely or just suspends? You can tell by how long it takes for the display to recover after you wake the system up.

Thanks!
