abit ip35 pro xe isa option rom

$

hi.  can anyone add a code to my ip35 pro xe bios?  it's an isa option rom.  im not sure really how to do it.  i read about this, and already done all the other part, of assembling the code to their instructions, that are listed on http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/show...ets/page34 here.  this is pretty much what i want to do.  i used the program they said and assembled the isa option rom.  ill put it down there as a link.

i done it right by their directions and put all the code in it was all selected and all added, with no extra spaces on the top or
bottom.  .  and made the isa option rom file using the

ill also put the bios file i would like to get it put in.  since this bios i think already has an isa option rom, im not really for sure how to inject it, i think it does, anyhow though.  they are talking about it on that link.  if anyone knows what their talking about and could update this bios, please help me.  this motherboard might be good to update, as its one of the few p35 boards that are pretty good, that you can still buy socket 775, brand new for.  so id think people might be looking for this or want this.

information: this option rom unlcoks teh mchbar, at least theoretically according to the link that is locked in the abit ip35 pro xe bios.  nobody ever done it and linked it anywhere, and im unsure of how it really works for updating any of this stuff.  i also never knew xeons had sse4.1 but i thought they did, so when i changed my e6600 to a x3360 and it didnt have the extra stuff, i just thought xeons didnt have it, and didnt think really it was a big deal.  but here recently ive been trying to get some more performance out of my abit board, and its just stuck, at my decent without much work overclock on this 2.8 ghz quad core at 3.65 ghz.  one of the problems trying to overclock it is there is no ddr ram settings, the whole mchbar is locked.  its not in bios, and that mchbar program which is what that links from, doesnt work on  it, as its locked before the computer boots up into windows, and where its locked, cant be unlocked from windows.  thats what the program writer said. 

anyway that link has some info on what this isa option rom is, and id like to get if someone could help me, this bios updated, with this isa option rom.  also this bios i found on here, and it has the intel option rom already updated. i tested it and got no real much of an improvement in any test scores. but i also found while doing this, that my whole driver was old too.  and that gave me more improvement than anthing.  i posted some screenshots under this same board topic in the raid section from the different tests i done. 

if anyone could do this bios hack for me, and also just, advice on how much your sure about knowing what this does, that this was the right way, to put this isa option rom in, in your skill level. itd help.

it sure would help.  thanks in advnace to anyone.  and also, it could help a bunch of other people too, as this is one of the few boards still being sold i believe new out of china where it was made at, almost 100% sure, 99.9%.  by an out of business company that was a high end board.  its decent anyway.  it supports 1066 ram stock and 1600fsb, stated.  and their new and socket 775.  i get decent scores with it. just never figured out how to overclock, and when i figured out some better settings, never got any better overclocks, but it was decent to begin with, but i did get to lower my voltages.  itd be a good upgrade for some 775 board people.  and if anyone was interested in it.  thanks.

heres the bios file, https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/attachment.php?aid=9625

and use the IR10slic bios, in that zip.  this bios is said to be a beta bios, i dont know if before or after the latest 11 bios for this motherboard, and ive used it, its a slic bios acer i think and it works.  its got updated intel option rom and im pretty sure it is updated as it flashes it on the screen as the computer starts.   it updates the intel option rom from version 8 to 10.  i think this zip, might have a readme in it..  and the 11 bios also from abit the last one, didnt show the sse4.1onn my xeon 775 x3360 processor, but this beta bios, did have it after i installed it and gave me the sse4.1 and the other features.  so it might of been after or i dont know the person who done this bios might of updated it.  so its a little bit updated too for the processor.  nothing seems unstable about it or anything.  It was supposed to be a SLIC bios with updated intel option rom put in it.  Also I couldnt use dos to flash the bios with it, I had to use windows, winflash, and the bios says not for retail reuse or something like that when it boots up too instead of the bios 11 version  on the first screen.  so maybe because its not for retail or whatever it is it says, it might not pass a checksum or something or some test when the dos tries to flash it.  it just stops working when you go to flash.  winflash does work though.  awardwinflash1.94 is what i used.

anybody, help?

File name: sp35153.exe

Release details
Released: Oct 5, 2007
Version 3.17


Hi I have an HP A1640N and I updated to v3.17 above and now it gave me Intel Xeon L5320 Support.

Yet CPU Speed is 466MHZ just 66.6 x 7 = 466

It's supposed to run at 266 x 7 = 1866

Can you mod the bios to properly support full speed on the L5320?

THANKS

Hello,

I made an update of the bios through windows using insydflash.exe after I download the bios driver from hp website.

after that the laptop turns on and off repeatedly with blank screen. I search on the web for identical problem and notice that the bios file is not installed correctly and I need to flash it using a eeprom external programmer.
after dissembling the parts, I found that 25Q32bvsig is related to the bios. thus I desoldered the chip and flash it using universal programmer with bin file contained with the driver update (attached figure). After that the laptop do nothing. Is there a way to restore a dump bios file to reflash the chip?
Please help me find such file.

Hi guys,

I have a Lenovo G710 Core i5 4200M @2.50Ghz with a Qualcomm Atheros AR9485WB-EG card and want to use an Intel Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 Plus Bluetooth card. Unfortunately at this moment, it's not possible due to a bios restriction and Lenovo is not willing to help me.
 
I attached my backupped BIOS (version 8ECN95WW), backup was created using Universal Bios Backup.exe.
Can someone remove the whitelist/restriction??

Thanks for any help!!

P7P55D-E DELUXE Slic 2.1 Request for BIOS 1601

Can't figure out how to flash BIOS

$

I have an Acer V5-573P which has experienced the black screen of death (the computer doesn't post, turns on but only black screen)

After a lot of googling I'm pretty sure that this is a bios problem and the fix is a simple bios flash but I cant seem to be able to flash any bios on my laptop (removing CMOS to reset bios didn't work either)

Here's what I've done

1. Using Rufus created a bootable FAT32 FreeDos Usb Stick. 
2. Downloaded my bios.
2. Extracted the rar to get to the exe.
3. Extracted the exe file. 

This is the site from which I downloaded the BIOS (Bios)
The problem is after extracting the exe there is no BIOS files (like .FD or .ROM)
These are the only files I get (Imgur Link)
Irregardless I put these files onto the root of my USB and put it into the computer. Then I hold power,fn, and esc
The blue power indicator starts flashing so I'm pretty sure that it means it is atleast able to enter BIOS recovery mode or whatever but nothing ever happens and it just keeps flashing.

Any help would be great. Thanks

.png   bios.png (Size: 215.86 KB / Downloads: 1)
Hi Everybody,

I had a problem in system bios that need to be reflashed again with an external programmer.
When I desoldered the chip (25q32bvsig) and flash the chip with a bin file downloaded from hp website (see figure attached) the laptop does not work.
I believe that the file is wrong the capacity of the chip is 4mb and the file capacity is 4.6mb.
My request is how to find the correct bin file for this bios chip. Is it possible for anybody having identical dump file to upload it to me?

Many thanks,

Hello! I suppose you came here to find out how to change your ami aptio BIOS splash screen. Big Grin  That is what the guide is about! Rolleyes

Well, let's keep going. Shy


1) DL UEFITool_0.21.4_win (https://github.com/LongSoft/UEFITool/releases), run UEFITool.exe

2) Ctrl+O, select BIOS file you hopefully already have somewhere ready

3) Ctrl+F, select tab labeled "GUID", input 7BB28B99-61BB-11D5-9A5D-0090273FC14D

4) Double-click on the first of three listed "7BB28B99-61BB-11D5-9A5D-0090273FC14D"

5) Press on plus sign next to 7BB28B99-61BB-11D5-9A5D-0090273FC14D, then again on another

6) Right click on "Raw section" line, "Extract body..." and save

7) You can rename the .raw file to .jpg or whatever that works, irfanview works great on identifying the correct extension

8) Edit the image

9) Rename the image extension to .raw

10) Right click on "Raw section" line, "Replace body..." and select the .raw file

11) Ctrl+S to save the BIOS

12) Done! Smile


Hopefully, the system will work and you will have modded splash screen! (For me it did work on X99UD3.F6 and now I have a pretty HL1 lambda logo instead of gigabyte blablabla :>)

Enjoy!

It looks like this request was done a while back, but all the download links are gone now: https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-A...one?page=2

This is for the Acer Aspire One 532h (NAV50.fd) BIOS v1.26.
I have attached the BIOS.

I tried using the tool http://www.jakobheinemann.de/en/j-bios.html , but it didn't seem to work (or perhaps I used the tool wrong).  The output I received is pasted below.  The output file was unmodified and was the same as the original file.  I am trying to enable the execute disable bit, which is supported by the processor, but the Advanced options are hidden in the BIOS.

Thanks!
