HTX card from Port mapped to memory mapped.
Posted: Thu Oct 08, 2009 5:42 pm
First of all, i'm new to this board and just wanted to say Hello .
Now my problem! I working at a investigation department at a Spanish university they are working with a new kind of NIC that connects directly to the HTX slot on their Supermicro mobo (H8QME-2+). Unfortunately, for the test they want to do, the card has to be memory mapped but right now the BIOS (AMI) set the card Port mapped. Thats where they put me in the game . They give me the source code of the BIOS (of course not without signing a NDA) and tell me to fix that! But there is just a little problem, I don't know how! Not even where to start! So I hope someone could give me a tip where to start or a complete HOWTO would be fine .
THX in advanced!
