They should each be exactly the same file size in bytes, as they are meant to fill the ROM exactly.
Both BIOSes at the site, UMC (tvx0619b.rom, 131071 bytes) and SMC (tvx1016b.rom, 131069 bytes) appear to be corrupt as I have downloaded them from the website....Zdnet archives have the same problem...which I/O chip do you have ? There are some old BIOSes around on the web but they don't say which I/O chip they are for.
Can you also save, zip and email me your present BIOS ?
The AMI flasher is linked to on the BIOS index page at www.Biostar.com.tw and also on the pop-up window which appears when you select Support/BIOS
Ritchie -
How many MB is that Matrox card (4, 8, 16)? Been looking to check one of those out. If you would...could you download and run CTCM7 with the /VID parameter on it and post the data here (or e-mail me with it). Do this from DOS Safe Mode (nothing running but DOS). You can port the data to a file using >c:\data.txt (or whatever). Thanks.

BIOS patched by BiosMan (Jan Steunebrink).
I tried to install a 40 GB harddisk but it isn't recognized.
The Bios hangs at autodetection, it is not supporting
such large harddisks and the motherboardmanufacturer has no
Bios-updates to solve this problem.
BIOS Manufacturer: Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
BIOS ID: 05/28/98-SiS-5598-P5SJ-B-00
BIOS OEM Signon: P5SJ-B Ver 1.4g 05/28/1998
Chipset: SiS5597 rev 2
Super I/O Chip: SMC 669 rev 2 found at port 3F0h
Maybe I'll find help here?

Intel's latest offering. The chips and motherboards are too overpriced right now, IMHO. Perhaps something to look at in a year?

Yes, it is.
B2 and B3 releases has the same date, I'm not sure B3 is a real update.
