Recommended by Wim's BIOS...

Hi, could I have the patched BIOS with the LAN? I need to run an LCD at 1600x1050. Thanks in advance.

sent.

Hi, I flashed the bios you sent. I'm still not able to get any resolution greater than 1280x1024 though. Is there something else I need to do? Thanks!

Res. updated bios to 1008vmwol.004 from the website and updated onboard SIS 650 with new driver. only able to see 800X600 and 1024X768. motherboard is P4S333-VM without onboard LAN. Can you please send me the patched BIOS please. Thank you very much.

Read the sticky thread !

Actually I did . I figured that I badly need the patched BIOS cp sent to a couple of other folks on this thread a few months ago. I am not an expert in BIOS and cannot think beyond buying a new AGP card that supports the resolution ! Is this patched BIOS downloadable from somewhere ?

if your problems still persists:
3. check if there's a patched bios available on our download page

My Motherboard did not seem to be listed anywhere. I did not find a specific download page. I checked the BIOS updated and BIOS IDs pages. A scan yeilded the following information.

Found the bios and downloaded it. Will try it out and will post the result and the details

I patched the bios and restarted. I had the Sis 3_373 driver already running. Still the resolution was not available. I uninstalled the Sis Driver and the default driver with XP was able to display 1440 X 900 correctly. However the windows driver is slow and rendering is sluggish. This was smooth with the Sis Driver but no 1440 X 900. Tried to remove teh Sis Driver and reinstall it. Did not help. Still no 1440 X 900. As a Stop Gap, I can still use the Windows Driver and be patient with the sluggish behavior.

I have tried all that I could possibly do. Even tried re-installing XP and firmware for PS4333-VM from the download page and then Sis Uvga 3_373. The Sis driver is quick but no 1440X900. The default windows Default Monitor sees the 1440X900 from updated BIOS but is very very slow !!

please...anyone can send the patched bios to my PM...thanks in advance
