Hi there.
Like the title says, I'm looking for an unlocked BIOS for the M2N68-LA.

I tried the Abit modded BIOS that worked for many other HP boards (I forgot the name, but the md5sum is 52b384b53f452213f67fb45764a5d18f, included in the attachment), and...it worked, at least for a little while: I flashed it via DOS, from stock BIOS, and got a BIOS checksum mismatch on the next reboot. I was able to access the Abit BIOS and I hit the "Load Optimized Defaults," just to be safe. On the next boot, I got continuous beeping--my motherboard was borked...
Come 2 days ago, I received my Raspberry Pi B+ and GPIO dupont cables. I was back in business.
Got the stock BIOS restored within 2 minutes or so thanks to the SPI headers present onboard and on the Rpi, and thanks to the "flashrom" software.
So far, I've borked my motherboard a few more times, and revived it a few more times, checking BIOSes that are from Asus's main website that are for the 6150se nForce 430 chipset. No success...
Would anyone like to offer me BIOSes to test out that would possibly work on the M2N68-LA IVY8, or give me pointers on how to mod the BIOS on my own? Like I said, I can reflash the BIOS if it doesn't work, so please don't hesitate
Note: Ivy514.BIN is the stock BIOS. abitmod.BIN is the modded BIOS that partially worked.
