yeah have found nice link site with many bios tools .... have them too but thats onyl 16bit version ... btw i have msged the taiwan msi support, maybe i a lucky bastardo ;P

... yepp i know, check the mydigitallife forum too (but dont have any hexedit skillz .. right now)

bios is a MSI OEMSLIC WINDOWS bios .. but i think thats not really helps! ...

OK I FOUND A WAY TO OPEN THE .ROM BIOS ... there are many good .CN web pages btw haha lol .. ok fernando now you can shot your part! common and wake UP! ... j/k!

will try to explain this shit! :)

>> DOWNLOADED TOOLS:
>> AFUWIN v4.40
>> AFUWIN v4.42

>> FIRST TRY:
>> AFUWIN v4.40 >> RUNNING WITHOUT PROBLEMS! >> LOAD A7582ims.rom = FAIL!

>> SECOND TRY:
>> AFUWIN v4.42 >> RUNNING WAS FAIL WITH MSG "ERROR LOADING DRIVERS" grr ..

>> LAST BUT NOT LEAST:
>> COPIED ALL 4 FILES FROM AFUWIN v4.42 INTO THE AFUWIN v4.40 DIRECTORY!!
>> NOW YOU CAN LOAD (with copied AFUWIN.exe) THE A7582ims.rom WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS! ... or WHAT?! 8]

>> LOADED BIOS:


>> FLASHED BIOS:


>> SAVED BIOS:


>> SAVED BIOS.ROM is now READY to OPEN with MMTool ... boooooom! ;)

>> LATEST UPDATE:
>> btw you can open the .150 bios too but after loading the bios as *.150 or *.ROM ... the bios version is 2MB smaller!
--> i replaced the PCI Option ROM ID: 20 LOC: 8086:2822 with 8086-2822_v11601702_mod_for_P55.bin = SUCESS! .. and SAVED AS .ROM!
--> now i tested my new (2MB smaller) bios with MSIHQ USB Bootable Tool and BIOS Helper = SUCESS! and 100% DONE WITHOUT ANY ERROS WITH MY NEW BIOS on a FAT32 USB STICK! (not more right now :P)
== but lol sorry, i mean that was to simple, i think there are not all features enabled in the new BIOS or something?! ... dont know, dont have any skillz in this section!

hi fernando ...
after load them as .ROM i have CHECKED all these SETTINGS:


after that i flashed and saved them! .. all seems ok!
and my saved .ROM was able to load without any problems in MMTOOL 3.22 BKMOD!
than i have follow your tut to replace the PCI Module! .. THATS ALL!

and now you mean, i can try to flash the BIOS from the USB STICK?

btw...bbs.bios.net.cn is good forum but it takes time to search for something there!

no i dont have saved them as 2mb bios or so, after loaded the bios (try as .150 and .ROM) was the loaded bios 2MB big (AFUWIN 4.42) and than i checked the settings and saved them! .. if you have few mins freetime, maybe you can do the same but i know you have a lot free time haha jk ;P ... lol yeah thats normal, you cant promise me and overtake any warranty i know ;)) ok will try mmtool 3.26 ...

MMTOOL v3.26 -> Load ROM -> SUCESS WITHOUT ANY ERORS!



thats the loaded .ROM with all ROM Info and RomHole values ^^ (btw 2x rom holes????)



after replaced PCI MODULE with 8086-2822_v11601702_mod_for_P55.bin

ok i will try to flash my bios now with MSIHQ USB Bootable Tool and BIOS Helper! . if something wrong i can tell you, the good one is i have my macbook here, so iam not offline ;)

the MSIHQ USB Bootable Tool and BIOS Helper tool run many tests and many bios inspects but ALL works liek a charm without any erros!

hmm after pressing F11 for the boot menu i have taken the usb3.0 stick and i have enabled all needed bios features but they dont run any procedure i can only see the cursor in the left corner .. ok but now thats the wrong forum for my problem! .. now try to fix! i think and hope the problem is maybe my taken external usb 4port ... will try now mobo usb port (which is normal to take for flashing the bios or so lol) ... brb ,p

ok right i can try after that the M-FLASH feature from my MOBO thats maybe better choice!

so ok i have fixed my usb drive now it works .. ok iam really excited like a kid hrhr .. ok i will run memtest86+ second time now in the bios flash menu and than i will flash this bitch! .. brb

btw fernando you knows, it is your fault, if something wrong i mean! ...... ;D

common memtest bitch .. mache licht ans fahrrad! loool
(60min left apr. .... damnit) ... ok maybe i will skip them it takes toooo long ..

status after 44mins:


hahah sorry for that big shot! ^^

ok nice BIOS FLASH is DONE!
i have clear the CMOS but now i have error "Missing operating system"
but thats normal, coz win7 was installed on INTEL P55 chipset RAID0 with 2 SSD´s

damn nice .... bios looks very well! ok now will reinstall windows 7!

@ Fernando:

you have maybe some advices or so before i install the os i mean!?

bios has in the cmos features few changes but all sata port and so are there ... i think thats a good sign!
(haah darauf rauch ich einen ^^) .... rennt!
