BIOS Updates forum

Hello all. I am looking for the bios update for the below computer. Pheonixbios no longer provides support for bios downloads and forwards people to biosagentplus.com. I already did the bios scan, made a biosagentplus.com account, was notified they had my bios update, paid for an account...only to be told by them they don't have my bios. It is like the punch line to some bad joke. Gateway has all these odds and ends, but nothing linking directly to my computer. As big as this computer was in 1993-1994 I refuse to believe the bios updates have died and gone to bios heaven.

So I am hitting all the forums I know. I hope a fellow vintage PC lover has this bios sitting in a floppy drive caddy somewhere. I will take anything newer than what I got.
Why do I want it? The updates provide larger hard drive support and better memory compatibility.

SPECS:
Model: Gateway 2000 4dx2-66v (short tower with only one CPU socket, overdrive ready)

That is quite a challenge we have here then. Let us check if we can find something decent for it.

well... what do you know...

jeeze...this must be it because I get that same parity error. You may have killed two birds with one bazooka!

This bios installed. Thank you very much. I was able to put my overdrive chip back in after this bios update. I can't believe after days of searching and paying biosagentplus.com (who could not find it), you found it in 6 minutes.
I am going to try and get this bios listed on their database so this does not happen to other people.

Thanks again!

Yeah, we need to get this site listed in more places, can save time, hair and money

Good to hear everything is running fine now.
