I'm trying to unlock the hidden options for a Abit AW8-MAX.
BIOS Type: Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG
BIOS ID: 01/23/2006-i955-W627EHG-6A79IA1AC
Here's the original zip file with the AW8_16.bin:
ftp://ftp.abit.com.tw/pub/download/bios/aw8/aw816.zip
I'm having trouble getting modbin6 to work with this BIOS.
Just to make sure, I tried everything on DOS 6.22 as well.
With modbin6 1.00.38 I get a stack overflow
With modbin6b 2.0 beta I get a "BIOS version not 6.0" message.
I extracted the files with awardeco and get the "Not compressed Award binary code" message in both versions when selecting the 6a79ia1a.BIN System BIOS file.
And indeed it isn't compressed. It's 128k (131,072) on disk.
I'm trying to use LZH to compress this file but not having much luck.
Here's the output from cbrom32:
