PC Chips M571 v3.2a BIOS Driver

wich date of 01.02.2002 + Flashrom - I used and work well - following list summarizes the changes incorporated into this

release of the BIOS:

1) Embedded VGA BIOS v1.09 was removed and v1.13 has been added. No VGA BIOS information will show when the system boots. This is normal. The BIOS version string that previously appeared during POST appears to have been a customization performed either by the board manufacturer or the chipset manufacturer. Not wanting to change the virgin ROM code, no attempt has been made to re-insert this string. The lack of the string display in no way affects the functionality of the BIOS.

2) Under the "Advanced Chipset Setup" menu:

a) SDRAM Access Time has been changed to 10ns for the

"Setup Defaults" [F6] option. (Note: The "Setup

Defaults" configuration also is loaded by the "Load

Best Performance Settings" item on the main menu.)

"Load BIOS Defaults" [F7] and the corresponding

"Load Optimal Settings" (on the main menu) remain

unchanged at 12ns.

b) CAS Latency configuration is now accessable and the

possible values are 2T and 3T (default value).

c) CPU to PCI Burst Write option is now accessable and

the possible values are "Disabled" (default value)

and "Enabled".

Good Luky -
