Hi Fernando,
I'll try to attach the expanded BIOS-File here.

Hi Fernando,
next try to upload the zipped bios-file. Hope it works this way...

Hi Fernando,
thanks a lot for this first information!
I will continue to try to find a solution and if I have one, then report here.

But maybe even someone further has ongoing ideas on how to put the modified file back into the BIOS file?

But thanks a lot for this first result.

Hi Fernando,
maybe I found a solution to change modules inside my BIOS (I test it at the moment). But this method requires the same size of the original and the modified module.

Therefore I have another question, you may have an answer:
The extracted module OPROM06.rom from my BIOS has a size of 79,872 Bytes.
But the modified Intel-OROM from AHCI & RAID ROM Modules has a size of 84,992 Bytes.

Do you have an idea, why the size of the module differs, which I didn't expect, because it has the same version an should therefore has the same size.

Thanks in advance,
Klaus

Hi Fernando

Thank you very much for your great work.

I have run into a problem however with the latest version of the "classic" RST drivers (17/Aug/2014):
I tried to install Windows Server 2008 R2 an a Laptop with ICH8M loading your current modded driver. The driver is not detected by setup.

About a week ago I did the same and it did work. Have you updated the drivers recently?
Could you provide a link to the previous version so that I can compare?

Thank you very much
Max

Hello Fernando,

could you please help me with the following problem?

I have to install Windows Server 2003 (32 Bit) on a PC with an ASUS B85-Plus Motherboard and an Intel 8 Series / C220 Chipset-SATA AHCI Controller.
And I tried to use your package on a floppy disc with the F6 (SCSI) option. Unfortunately the system hangs before I can select any appropriate driver from the list.
(the list itself won't be shown)

What can I do now?

Thanks a lot!

best regards
John

thank you for your quick reply Fernando.
Windows 2008 R2 is 64 bit, so I need that version.

Thank you
Max

Hello Fernando,

wow, thanks for your fast reply!

I use a DVD(-Drive) for installing a buyed (original) Version of Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.
The BIOS Settings for SATA are:

SATA-Modusauswahl: AHCI
Aggressive-LPM-Unterstützung: Auto
S.M.A.R.T. Statusprüfung: Aktiviert

SATA6G_1 (Yellow) HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NSB0 ATAPI
Hotplug: Disabled

SATA6G_2 (Yellow) WDC WD30EZRX-00D8PB0 (3000.5 GB)
Hotplug: Disabled

Thanks!

Hi Fernando,
as a short description, what I did the last hour and what seems to be successful, but didn't work in the end (hopefully s.b. can help, because at the moment I don't have any ideas how to go on):

1.) phcomp /D $01C0000.FL1 --> Uncompress BIOS-File
2.) phnxsplit.exe $01C0000.FLh --> Extract modules
3.) Create a new file OPROM.SCR:
BANKS -N:1 -S:256 # Flash accessed as one(1), 8192 KByte (64Mb) bank.
COMPRESS LZINT # Use LZINT when compressing modules
BOOTBLOCK -S:128 # (J) PSI style, no BB.BIN needed
OPROM OPROM06n.rom
PSI -PLACE:"BOOTBLOCK" -ALIGN:TOP -COMPRESS:NO ceimain.bin
4.) COPY 8086-2822_9501037.bin OPROM06.rom --> Copy the modified OROM to a short-named one
5.) fp OPROM.scr
6.) fi OPROM.scr
7.) rom2mod BIOS.ROM BIOS.MOD

fp.exe, fi.exe and rom2mod.exe came from phoenix and were packed inside the BIOS-Update from Lenovo.
phcomp.exe and phnxsplit.exe come from http://www.endeer.cz/bios.tools/ and are good working tools to extract the modules inside the bios (e.g. the OPROM06.rom where the intel raid seems to be in).

The idea was, using the Phoenix-Tools, to create also a packed module (like the OPROM06.rom inside the lenovo-bios) from the 8086-2822_9501037.bin and then replace it.

But rom2mod crashes on my PC when I keep the COMPRESS LZINT inside the script.
And when I delete this line inside OPROM.SCR it creates a only 20 KB great BIOS.MOD, which is to small compared to OPROM06.rom.

So I think, it maybe only some errors of the parameters inside OPROM.SCR, because in priciple this steps are used to create the Phoenix-BIOS-Flash.

So hopefully s.b. has an idea and/or some experience with Phoenix-bios-files and knows what to change?

Thanks a lot for any ideas !!!
