Cbrom Exe Bios

Ive just extracted my bios from a MSI 9105LR which has Fastrak100 Lite onboard raid, had a go at removing the Fastrak100 Lite code and then spliced the latest bios for the Fastrak100 addin raid card from Promises webby. It all appears to have gone fine and the new bios's list of components shows the new code component for the full blowen Fastrak100. Thing is i did this under a WinXP command prompt - is this OK? Has anyone tried this with other mobo's and had success going from Lite to Full version Raid?

Im not in the mood right now to be guinea pig as i aint got the time to fix it if it goes wrong Any feedback or advice be gratefully received. Thanx, rockhard =). Thanx guys Ive since found out that the bios snap in for the Fastrak100 looks for a different Device ID so you need a specially hacked bios plug in for it to work. Also you need to hack the drivers for the new device ID to make them compatible with the hacked bios plugin. Poslovici pro trenie. Ive found the files that i need and have done the deed modifying my bios etc ready to go on a floppy for flashing.

I used the CBROM.EXE following the directions Here [Guide] Award/Phoenix BIOS Modding First I uninstalled the original intel rst driver shut down installed the bios Reset all my settings and thats all there was. I already had Intel raid console set to raid-0 with two Silicone power S70 240 gb drives. Cbrom.exe Page 1 BIOS ROM Combination Utility This manual briefly discusses Cbrom, the Award BIOS ROM Combination utility, with instructions to guide you through combining third-party firmware with the Award BIOS in a file format for flash memory chips. Cbrom supports 1-MB and 2-MB flash memory file formats.

Now im just going to wait till i get hold of a bios chip extractor then i'll give it a go. If anyone's interested ive popped a zip file with the hacked bios and drivers upon my webby. Please note this is for the MSI 9105LR only. If anyone tries this please let me know how you get on. Regards, rockhard =).
