I have posted a reply to the issue stated in post;
http://www.wimsbios.com/phpBB2/topic7497.html#49652

However, as it is dated, I have started a new thread

I have the same issue only with a 512kb rom image and
an 4Mb Intel FWH

There are two versions of the firmware I would like to check for
uCode patches. Both images are AMI BIOS as with;

v1.3
Program: eSupport.com BIOS Detect v1.2 July 21, 2003
BIOS Date: 10/28/99
BIOS Type: American Megatrends
BIOS ID: 63-10B1-001169-00101111-071595-WHITNEY-1WHITNEY
OEM Sign-On: A6178O1 V1.3MR 140100
Chipset: Intel Whitney 82810 rev 3
CPU Type: Pentium III
CPU Speed: 600 Mhz
CPU Max: 800 Mhz
BIOS ROM In Socket: Yes
BIOS ROM Size: 512K
Memory Installed: 128 MB
Memory Maximum: 1024 MB

v1.72
Program: eSupport.com BIOS Detect v1.2 July 21, 2003
BIOS Date: 05/08/00
BIOS Type: American Megatrends
BIOS ID: 63-10B1-001169-00101111-071595-WHITNEY-1WHITNEY
OEM Sign-On: A6178EO1 V1.72MR 08052000

CPU Speed: 733 Mhz
CPU Max: 800 Mhz
BIOS ROM In Socket: Yes
BIOS ROM Size: 512K
Memory Installed: 128 MB
Memory Maximum: 1024 MB
It is an AMI BIOS as with

I have used MMTool v3.x and the images are not recognized.
I have used MMTool MMTool_2.22.1.exe and it will (apparently)
load the image bit no modules are listed.

Is this a similar problem?
I did try to cut the two bytes from the BIOS image but
then MMTool MMTool_2.22.1.exe states the image length is wrong.

Any help or suggestions appreciated

Ok

Got these opend with AMIBCP (non-Windows version)
Q - Can anyone give me a walk-through of how to
extract and add Intel uCode updates with this tool?

Please!

Thanks
