Ive been very happy with this mod bios, and had no problems till now.
Not sure if its mod bios problem, but here it is .
Every time I boot the hardware installer starts to load for "PNP bios extension",
when I try to install it runs the routine then returns the #39 driver not found error.
Ive reinstalled Nforce , and reflashed bios, no luck.
Ive tried to manually install driver with "standard PNP bios ext" and it does the same thing , driver not found.
I have the t3o25.
Should I just disable PNP and set my IRQs myself? I feel confident that I wont have many issues doing that as I have disabled many devices leaving lots of irqs to play with. I dont print, use serial ports, and have an open pci slot so all of those are disabled in bios. (*Odd thing is my vid and netcard are still listed as being on irq19).
Any ideas?
I did a search through reg and found something interesting,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Biosinfo
SystemBiosDate 11/04/03 biosinfo.inf
whats interesting is that is the date of the bios but I cant find biosinfo.inf anywhere on my drive?
I checked my xp i386(i always copy it to my hd just in case ) and it has the file
dated Thursday, August 23, 2001, 8:00:00 AM
Should there be a biosinfo.inf installed somwhere in sys32 folder or inf folder?
should I use the inf in my i386 even though its older than the new mod bios?
thanks folks!
thought Id add a link to the bios since Ive seen various post here about people looking for a modded bios for this mobo and the next generation of it used in emachines. Everyone using it (10pages so far) have had good results.

heres a summary,
AU31 Bios from my T3265 with some success. I now have settings for FSB Frequency from 100-300Mhz in 1Mhz increments and settings for memory timing. Also was able to enable users to set their Aperture setting from 32MB-256MB. No CPU Multiplier or Vcore found so these still are limited but may be helpful to some. Since this is a modded version of "E" Bios I had no problem with Windows Activation at all and I did flash my bios 4 different times before I settled on this final version.
*my first post but Ive been reading these forums for a long time, Ive never posted because Ive always found my answer, which reflects well on the folks here
