List of AMIBIOS manufacturers and project IDs (version 1.4)

Recommended by Wim's BIOS...

I have decoded the information in the tag.dat and man.dat files that AMI ships with version 1.4 of the Motherboard Identification Utility:

http://www.ami.com/support/mbid.cfm

Here are the respective files:

http://www.users.on.net/~fzabkar/BIOSut ... uf/MAN.LST
http://www.users.on.net/~fzabkar/BIOSut ... uf/TAG.LST

The man.dat/lst file is a list of motherboard manufacturers and the tag.dat/lst file is a list of AMIBIOS Project IDs.

Thank you, that might help every now and then.

I've just made a few minor corrections.

AMI's coding algorithm should be evident from the following programs:

http://www.users.on.net/~fzabkar/BIOSut ... uf/man.bas
http://www.users.on.net/~fzabkar/BIOSut ... uf/tag.bas

I found later versions of the man.dat and tag.dat files.

Here are the corresponding decoded files:
