Hi.

Short time ago, I found a homepage where I could download a really huge
collection / archive of many (all?) CPU microcodes.

I did not download it, because I thought it would not be important in future.

However, now I am really angry about myself that I did not download that CPU microcode archive / collection.


Well, I already tried google with many different search strings,
but without no success. :(


Is anyone able to help to find this page with the CPU micro code archive / collection again?

Hi.

Wow. :)
This seems to be another really good site with CPU microcodes,
but it was not that homepage.


I remember that it was a zip or rar file with many, many, many much more .... CPU micro codes in it.

Hi.

apple_rom's cpu micro code collection / archive is a second good one, but it is not the cpu micro code collection, which I am looking for.

http://rom.by/Award/patcher/all_microcodes.rar doesn't work.
Is there a working link to the file?

If anyone's interested, I spent a few nights searching & extracting all the
latest revisions of Intel microcodes I could find, then saved them into one
344kb file that I could use with the Intel updater & called it pep.dat
when combining them for use with the Intel update utility, can be
used with ctmc too, or any other utility as I have done so already..
I found a lot in the update.sys from the latest Windows 2003 Sp1 CD +
others found from here & there...

Download from here if interested

Iv'e since used this file to update microcodes on 4 different systems
successfully & saved the bios's for other similar systems if I run into
them again to save me time later..

I have a Microcode Updater that I found in some cases works were
ctmc wont as it has the option/switch that forces it to update regardless
of bios types/brands, where I found the ctmc wouldn't work with some
OEM bios's, this particular utility does...
Figured someone may find it usefull as I did...

Download Here.
