I need some testers before releasing a new bios for the TH7II and TH7II-RAID.
The new bios is based on the official Abit BF, includes the usual tunings and updated HPT bios (v2.34), but more importantly it contains a new mod: a bios extension in the shape of an integrated FDISK utility (press CTRL-F when the logo appears to activate it).
For the moment I can send you a version which only has the new HPT bios + the BiosFDisk extension (ie: no tuning), as I am at work and only have access to CBROM on Windows XP. I will do a 'tuned' version this weekend.
I you want it, PM me.
WARNING: by flashing this bios there is a very high risk of rendering your bios chip (and computer) unusable. Additionally when testing the BiosFDisk extension there is the possibility of wiping out the contents of your hard drives!
Only test this bios if you have a bios savior AND spare hard drives. I also recommend you disconnect your existing hard drives. I have not been able to test it as I accidentely damaged my spare bios chip :-(
If everything works, I would like to get some feedback on the BiosFDisk extension. Eg: does it work only on HD connected to IDE 1 & 2 or also on HD connected to the HPT controller? Does it work on RAIDed disks? Etc...
All credits for the BiosFDisk extension go to smKen. I did not write it, he did
