Yes I will make it, but a little later because I have to make a new full screen splash logo.

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Last call:
Is anyone able to mod BIOS for H55M-UD2H? It's a weird thing, but I did notice people messed around with it back then, so someone must know how to do it.

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Just trying to get this modified bios thing straight so I understand and don't screw up. Thanks...
If a motherboard is flashed with a modified bios, then later flashed again with a newer bios that was not modified, does it lose the previous mods?
If that later flashed bios is modified, but one of the mods is an older version for some reason, will the motherboard revert back to the older version of that one mod?

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

IMHO

1) Yes all previous Bios mod are lost
2) Yes it revertback

Because for me when flashing bios alls blocks are erased (using fpt MsDos command).

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Z77X-UD5H

Does bios include Marvell Firmware 2.2.0.1125b X64

I dont understand flashing procedure for Marvell firmware. Message I get is this update is for X86.

It seems that I need to create image file for my chip.

Any suggestions?

Is this applicable to mod bios update or what?

Could you try this : GA-X79-UD3 F14 mod5... I fear for the quality with 8bit BMP indexed

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

Size is to big.....1024x768.....(769KB).
Should be.......800x600....(469KB).
8bit BMP...is OK.

Edit:
try this...(size as original):

splash X79.zip

Hi Stasio,

But i started by extracting original splash logo which is 1024x768 for 769kB, this is why i kept this size for my logo... are you sure that my logo will not work ?

I didn't check for X79-UD3 (yet)...but ,I know from Z77.....maybe they change size now?

Edit:
Yea,you are right...new size of splash pic.

I think the only risk is to have a black screen instead of new splash screen

No,
I think both splash is Ok.
Your (original X79-UD3-F14) is bigger size,so less space in BIOS.
Just checked and X79 before use smaller size.

Thanks. I would assume it's the same no matter how the BIOS was flashed.

Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

I recall Gigabyte @BIOS having a history of problems but my understanding is the program is now stable and works perfectly fine. I've used it to install several modified BIOS' over the past couple months and haven't had any issues, but I notice other comments which imply otherwise. Not sure if they're valid or not so I was wondering if @BIOS is now perfectly stable to use?
