| - | I have started selling replacement 003CH BIOS ROM chips for the T3200SX. If you're currently in need of upgrading your BIOS in order to install a different hard disk, you can use my BIOS chip to get around any limitations you may have with your current BIOS. The BIOS that I am selling is the the 003CH Hybrid BIOS, which is a combination of the 003C BIOS with the faster VGA BIOS of 003I. The hybrid BIOS will essentially act as an older BIOS and allow you to boot any hard disk. With this BIOS, all you need is a disk overlay program to correct the hard drive parameters. I can also program an XT-IDE enabled BIOS chip for you if you wish. Both chips are a drop-in replacement for the old BIOS chip, and should work great in any T3200SX system. | + | I have started selling replacement 003CH BIOS ROM chips for the T3200SX. If you find yourself in a situation where your BIOS won't detect a replaced hard drive because it is not the original Conner drive shipped with the unit, you can use my BIOS chip to get around any limitations you may have with your current BIOS. The BIOS ROM contains both a BIOS and a VGA BIOS: The one I am selling is denoted as version 003CH Hybrid BIOS, which means it is a combination of the 003C BIOS from my original machine that accepts any HDD, and also has the latest VGA BIOS from the ROM chip 003I which is faster than that from the original 003C chip. The hybrid BIOS has an older version of the BIOS which doesn't validate the hard drive, and will allow you to install and boot any hard disk. With this BIOS, all you need is a disk overlay program (AnyDrive, see files section) to correct the hard drive parameters. This BIOS chip is a drop-in replacement for the old BIOS chip, will not affect it's stock appearance and should work great in any T3200SX system. |
