30GB and 40GB HDDs not detected
Used Uniflash to save the BIOS, it is 128 kB, BIOS chip AMIC A29040L-70
Will send this file if needed
Please fix
thank youEDIT: Noticed that the latest BIOS is
GC.M1.63 , 1.63 , 11 Jul 2001
New features
1. Implement Battery calibration in BIOS
2. Add PIII CPU D0 stepping support.
3. Add SXGA+ panel support.
Fixed issues
1. Improve the flicker on HPA panel.
However I doubt it contains support for the larger harddrives as it was released in 2001 ???
EDIT:
Flashed to GC.M1.63 and saved with Uniflash. File is 512 KB and seems to open in Phoenix BIOS Editor. Got no clue what to do from here though
EDIT:
Beware the M1.63 BIOS, it fails to boot from HDD (CD works). May need to reflash back to .03
