Both version of this Bios (one 128KB and the other 256KB in size) have already been patched up to 128GB

-> Acorp 6BX67

The ID utility shows 256KB Bios size but please verify this using Uniflash to read-out your Flashrom type and capacity to avoid serious trouble

2A69KF9AC and VER:1.3_C should mean that it's 256KB
