Answer» I couldn't fully understand the sentence below. Does it means, when i flash new bios,it will have a backup for OLD bios? Correct me if i'm wrong.
“The first instruction that is fetched and executed FOLLOWING a hardware reset is located at physical address FFFFFFF0h. This address is 16 bytes below the processor’s uppermost physical address.”1 The Flash ROM containing the Boot Block CODE resides at this address. There will be one physical ROM which is 16Mbit in capacity. This ROM will contain both the primary and the backup BIOS ROM images concatenated to create one 16Mbit image Boot Block Primary BIOS ROM:FFFF0000hFFFFFFFFh Primary BIOS/DMI/ESCD:FFF00000hFFFEFFFFh ---------------------------------------- Backup BIOS ROM: Backup BIOS Boot Block(Unused):FFEF0000hFFEFFFFFh Backup BIOS/DMI/ESCD:FFE00000hFFEEFFFFh
When the backup BIOS EXECUTES, the primary BIOS region for ESCD and DMI are updatedIt should, but you can't be sure...Quote from: Ryder17z on May 14, 2008, 11:05:00 AM It should, but you can't be sure...
