Nothing inside the chipset should be decoding port 80 writes. It's possible this board has a port 80 decoder wired onto the board that's misbehaving. I've seen other laptop boards with port 80 decoders

This is very helpful. So the next question is there something on the laptop mainboard.

Any idea how to look for such a thing? I am not averse to taking the laptop apart to look at the mainboard.
