thanks for the quick answer. I’ve tried the AMIMMWIN way without success. The @bios-Tool from GIGABYTE doesn’t produce an valid .rom for the input.

V:\ami\AMI toolset 8 RC1>AMIMMWIN.exe \orig.rom /INFO

FATAL ERROR: AMIBIOS Header cannot be found.

V:\ami\AMI toolset 8 RC1>

Any ideas what goes wrong?

Thanks in advance

i can see the output from cbrom tool. I am not sure how to create an amibios8.rom file to use mmtool. The already prepared bios for my motherboard has no entry for my ven/dev combi.

I have now added the needed adapter. The problem is a checksum error that leads to restore the original (non modded) bios. What can I do now?
