Foxconn 560A latest BIOS file from their website when loaded into the Award SLIC tool and Verified gives an error like this : " Module 769F1P05.bin has an invalid check sum.Ĭould this be normal considering that Award from 4.55 up does not have a check sum in their main BIOS file? I run winxp 32 bit on a Lenovo T60 laptop core2 duo T7200 processor. In award slic tool if i run verify on this file i get the main bios file possible corruption. Please try to open the foxconn latest bios file with award bedit and tell me if the setup section shows readable content or just garbage? with the current awdbedit i get garbage and a warning when i open the file, that the file it's corrupted. I decided to test the bios files for integrity and found these strange error codes for both files, the one for ECS and the one for Foxconn. After hot flashing the bios with flashrom in linux, the foxconn board ceased to function, no POST. The ECS died with no apparent reason and i decided to reflash the BIOS using the foxconn board which was working. However i have some strange behavior with these two motherboards. This is what i do programming and hardware service on computers. I have no malware or viruses, this i can tell you for sure, i keep my computer in a very well running shape. However, i will download again the tools and see what happens. I do not know if this it's correct as i do not have access to the original file that was flashed in the bios chip, it's corrupted and beyond resurection. When i run verify i get a single suspicious message " There are unlinked blocks in module 80h. Have you run verify command in the SLIC tool ? on the latest file from ECS? the layest file it' GF7050VT-M_080707.ROM.
