Thanks
Sorry, Didnt check this thread much, frankly my questions have not been spefically BIOS-related when the answer came out, so I've pursued other avenues. Rest assure if I ever join the masses of Phoenix/Award users, who CALL THEMSELVE ENTHUSIASTS BUT YET DARE TO TREAD UNEXPLORED GROUND THEY CALL AMI....

VIA 8233 Southbridge registers: Looking for IDE address
Hello again, fellow tweakers. I am using my handy AMI Bios editor to view/edit the registers of my VIA 8233 Southbridge. The utility allows viewing and editing of both bridges in raw DWORD hex format, so you just get a short list of dwords and that's it. I'm looking to use the BIOS editor to increas...

Thanks All
Thanks folks. Although it was not the ideal answer, the answer given by respondents to my post was the correct one. As the closer to this issue, I wanted to let readers know that I have corresponded with Wolfram Podien, author of CPUCOOL and CPUFSB, who has experience with my PLL IC. We have compare...

Moving away from BIOS: appreciate any pointers from here
Well, this thread has now officially moved away from BIOS-related posts, so if anyone has any pointers for me, appreciated. I'll make this my last post to this thread. I've obtained the datasheet for my PLL-IC, and it can be software programmed. Unfortunately the outdated SOFTFSB by H-Oda only suppo...

I'm afraid you fellows are right...
yep,it's hardware. I found the easy way to see what each module does: I found a secret option to force the POST to display the "friendly name" of every installed module. Nothing remotely interesting showed up, so I'm assuming you are correct. Well, certainly learned something: Don't buy clock-locked...

Slightly refined & more intelligent questions about my t
Hello again. It occured to me that all engineers share the quality of not giving up on a problem, in spite of the fact that it makes no financial sense whatsover. In the time it has taken me to get into this problem thus far, I could have earned enough money to buy 30 brand new motherboards of all c...

Remove PCI clock lock on AMI bios v0700, MSI 6380 v2.0
Also known as the K7T266 Pro2. I've gone as far as I can go with my research, and have discovered the wonderful fact that info on patching AMI bios' is quite scarce. By now if this had been an Award I'd be done. In any case, I simply would like to remove the PCI clock lock, and then of course I woul...
