Shuttle AK31a...which BIOS?

I am going to upgrade my system this weekend and decided on this board. I had done a lot of research on it and seem to have gotten myself confused on which is the best BIOS to use. You have the bios listed at the products homepage which is ak31s2e9. Then you also have another located at Spacewalker which is ak31s2ei. The I also read about one that is a "performance" bios called ak31s9e8.

So...my question is...which of these should I go with?
 
Use the ak31s2ei bios..... especially if your going to run an XP processor. I have currently switched my 1.4 TB to a XP 2000 on this board with 2x256 2100 ddr and it is very stable with ram timings set aggressively. I would stay away from the ak31s9e8 bios as I remember it to be really flakey and not much in improving performance.
 
Thanks...I am indeed going to be running an XP (1900) so that is the one I will go with...also since it is the most recent.
