I'm not well versed in checksum calculations or even how it is dealt with in a BIOS.
Generally you either store the checksum data for comparrison or utilize another algorithm based on the lower bytes of the final calculation.
From what I understand an AMI BIOS stores the checksum value.
Changing certain values in the BIOS will invalidate this calculation.
Where are these bytes stored and how do I deal with fixing a BIOS checksum error?
Do I have no idea what I'm talking about?
Several of us have been dealing with modding a laptop BIOS to support the AMD K6-2+. This checksum is the last thing on the list that stands in our way (other than actual testing of course).
PLEASE HELP!
Thankies!
