Īfter I have verified that method, andy can implement it into his tool. Then it always will work, at Phoenix not. You need your right key combination and the right filename. Insyde bioses are IMO better for recovery than Phoenix. Please note you have to press a special key combination to kick in the recovery.you may also try (boot)cd.

It's in between the above byte sequence and the next 5Ch byte (read backwards) Preferably at 3D17205B-4C49-47E2-8157-864CD3D80DBD (GUID)īefore that sequence you should find the right filaname. The filename starts with a backslash (5Ch) to indicate root directory (not always).

Since the correct name for recovery isn't always *.FD, the best is to search for:ĮL TORITO SPECIFICATION 00-byte CD001 at all dumped files of andy's tool.īefore that string there are 5 zero bytes and then the filename for recovery. (Sorry i'm not at home ATM, can't check your bios).Įdit: It should be BIOS.fd (check the spelling, case sensitive) I did a few tests with some Insyde bioses. I never finalized that idea, but the amount of Insyde bioses is increasing and the need to recover them, too. 'EL TORITO' is a CD boot specification, which could be an indicator for recovery from CD. What I need to do is to check some Insyde bioses.I'm not sure if the extension. There are also some specific identifier strings for recovery. I mentioned about an idea just to search for it. It's really easy, since the recovery routine must call a file and therefore the name of it must be coded somewhere. I'll check more Insyde bioses that way and will compare it to posted results.Īfter that I'll PM andy about to implement. I want MDL to be a friendly forum with helpful and kind members. I feel responsible to MDL and I try to keep it growing. The admin role came later to me, basically I'm a bios modder. I have searched for a 'home' to modify bioses and finally I arrived here. Yes, I am admin (one of three) besides the owner of MDL. I know your feeling when bricking a friends Laptop accidentally.a similar feeling I get when one of the requester bricks his Laptop by trying one of my biosmods. I'm glad that you finally have managed to recover your friend's Laptop.
