AMI BCP(tool to modify BIOSes and unhide BIOS options)
is not able to open the biosfiles from:
http://download.gericom.com/NOTEBOOK/Bl ... llent-xxxx

The BIOS-files bring error-messages while loading them with follong versions of AMIBCP

AMIBCP 2.00 Beta 1998 (also known as amimm) (hires mode)
AMIBCP v7.00.B11 1999
AMIBCP v7.00.B12 1999
AMIBCP v7.01.01 1999
AMIBCP v7.51.00 2001 (hires-mode)
AMIBCP v7.51.03 2001
AMIBCP v7.60.04 2002

I have to figure out how to change the checksum that the BIOS files will be loaded.

Now I have received many really new AMIBIOS tools.

(AMIBCP for Windows, for AMIBIOS Core 8 etc...)
Your BIOSfile can be opened now...let me see what I can do.

Well, all menu-items are viewable. That means there is nothing more to do.
Or do you miss one?

Why is/was it wrong?

Nothing; the BIOS do not work with the AMIBCPs in the BNOBTC v4. :)
To modify your BIOS I use tools which will be available in BNOBTC v5.

As I told you, all available BIOS-setup-items are allready active/unhide.

Generally:
BIOS developer program certain/different Setup-Items related to the mainboard/notebook.
If they are finished they deactivate/hide certain BIOS-Setup-Items.
(Which can be unhide again.)

In your case the BIOS was not programmed to change the fsb or overclock the cpu. Use fsb-software to do this instead.

I conclusion: your BIOS allready shows all available Setup-items.
