Uniflash 1.30, can´t detect an intel d810emo with 82802ab

Hi, I just tested uniflash 1.30 and, It couldn´t detect my board flash rom. The board is a intel D810EMO. Uses i810e chipset and a 82802AB firmware hub with an ami bios. I forced uniflash with the 89AD code, and manage to dump the bios succesfully...but I don´t dare to flash back.
Any idea about why can´t detect the flash rom by itself?

Thanks

It does not work because it's Intel board... Use Intel's flasher and Intel's BIOS http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/d810emo/

Thanx for answering, but the problem is I added new microcodes to my bios to support newer cpu´s and Intel flasher doesn´t allow to flash 512kb raw files. The intel flasher uses several 64kb+160bytes headers with checksum and that kind of things, so I can´t use it, I need a flasher able to program 512kb raw files.
Btw, what is the reason your flasher dont work with intel boards ?
If the dump worked...will flashing work?

Thank you

Intel boards use undocumented write protection. I don't have any Intel board to test and they always have Flash ROM chip soldered - that's not good for developing a flash utility

There have to be a way

A guy from a d810emo forum have socketed its bios, maybe he could help.
The other way would be reverse engineering the iflash or intel express flahers..but I have no enought knowledges.
