But I wouldn't put it past the BIOS developers to have their internal interfaces a little off standard. I was testing with 4.6.10 so I obviously didn't have all of the most recent bugfixes. What I do know is the interface for plugin roms in the BIOS isn't 100% the same as it is for plugin cards. Because with a flashed NIC it all worked fine. And I replaced the PXE module in location, name, and type. But as I didn't decompress the PXE module I don't have a clue what it's rom header looked like. Eric |
