BIOS Updates forum

I mean i have an issues with the video card not fully detecting (HD5000 instead of HD5570). I was thinking it was the SMBIOS but, perhaps it's just coincidence. I also happen to be doing overclocking and should be getting the CPU voltage option in the bios but, i don't. is it possible to mod or forc...

I know you can make a fake SMBIOS to get things like "about this mac" and itunes working how ever i'm have an issuer with the video card only correctly but, not entirely correctly identifying. i'm starting to think maybe it's a coincidence. http://www.osx86.net/topic/20063-hd5570-doensnt-fully-recog...

you need a patched kernel for 10.6 as i'm suing 10.6. since it's a pentum 4 skt 478 you need a legacy kernel.

I have a BioStar P4M900-M4. for some reason Chameleon boot loader/10.6 snow leopard hackintosh can't detect my SMBIOS. Perhaps if some one can confirm that my mobo does indeed have SMBIOS i can take my problem/questions back to the hackintosh community.

no, you mean the will the new bios see your modded bios and bric kyour device. i'm inclined to think not. if you did really mean that then the answer is best suited for someone who can see in to the future. unless you have any ideas as to why the new bios flash wouldn't work i don't see why not. i w...

depends on the laptop. i know for my Acer 5920G there is a recovery procedure.

how hard would it be to modify a bios by adding an SMBIOS? my bios lacks and SMBIOS and a particular os i'm using needs it/one. would be possible to add one in to it?

I have Toshiba satellite 2805 s503 that uses an Intel i815 which from i under stand uses normal CL2 and CL3 ram. so i don't totally buy the proprietary ram thing specially when thing were standardized then as they are now why would toshiba waste money making thing proprietary the cost benefit from b...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814187057 I ran this in an old dellr450 i had running with slocket adapter and a Tualtin 1.4 ghz cpu it ran world of warcraft around 25-30 fps so it helps out a lot since the PC was so old it was way overkill for that system but it is a good pci ...

well when it says detecting ide drives it sits then ask to boot from cd but i think this is becasue ubuntu never finishes the install because when it checks the mirror AFTER copying all the files over it hangs the other thing is the bios locks up when i switch screens this cpu is a funny bunny thin...

a completed flash floppy. i out one of these in it i think it may work better doing the old way the the fc-pga2 adapter but using the bare cpu you can over clock it!!!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=270404297856 I think the flash will clear up any proble...

i found the the bios and but, the flash utility confuses me and is dos which will in now way run under Windows 7. it doesn't recognized the hdd but, the ubuntu install can install it i think it hang right when it checks the mirror too or or it id finish in stalling when i wasn't paying attention but...

I figured someone might like it. It plays WoW at 20fps with an old ati 9200
just got a newer pci card for it on newegg if it doesn't drain the power it should be interesting to see the results.

Dell XPS R450 has a bios the limits what CPUs you can put in it because the voltage regulator on the motherboard has limited capabilities. http://www.roberthancock.com/dell/xpsrproc.htm very helpful once you’v read this you should be able to follow me. First I got an Fc-Pga to Fc-Pga2 converter it l...
