You said before that you thought the BIOS backup included dynamic data.
Ah, that's cool. :) Sorry for the delay replying.
You must use 3.51.
3.46 might corrupt the bios and there is no way to tell until the box doesn't boot.The bios you backed up up is not the same as my original backup:
steve@steve-Satellite-Pro-A300:~/Desktop$ md5sum OG-BIOS.ROM 6ce4e0811a16a61f98e051caee7d3bbb OG-BIOS.ROM steve@steve-Satellite-Pro-A300:~/Desktop$ md5sum xtm5.rom 6fd0df1ef90335d5a4af2e9bea1a6958 xtm5.rom
However I don't think that's necessarily a problem. When I have backed up the BIOS rom before and compared it they have always been different. I believe that the downloaded ROM file must contain some dynamic data which changes every time making comparison like that impossible.
Steve
Edit: typos
Anybody tired comparing this one:
EDIT2>>
Here's the OG-BIOS.ROM file. Can you verify that it matches your original BIOS so I know if I can just flash the modified BIOS you've provided?I have an XTM 510 that still has the original BIOS. Can extract in a few days if needed.

Did the one I attached not work? Or was it the wrong version?

Does anyone have a good source for 4GB DDR2 240 Pin DIMMs PC2-6400, 800MHz, Non-ECC, unbuffered memory?
Looking to buy 2 sticks that won't end up costing me $95. -

@747Builder:
dont forget you need low density 4G sticks… apparently NON low density sticks dont work.
Right… Forgot to mention that was another requirement on my list.
NON ECC
Unbuffered
AND Low Density.I'm finding them out there, but it's almost $50 per stick.
I'd like to set up Squid, but only have 2GB right now, and hear that would take more than 2GB.

My Nano USB Programmer doesn't recognize the BIOS chip. :(
Grtz
DeLoreanDelorean,
your sure you had the clip on the flash chip the right direction (YES ive made that stupid mistake of being on wrong) and power unplugged from the XTM?747Builder,
Pin1 is marked with a red line on my clip, i have tried with powercord unplugged, plugged, with and without the CMOS battery.
Everytime same result.
Also used a 9pin USB header cable, with on each side a female connector, to connect to the SPI connector on the motherboard,
but this gave same result.I have then looked further, and the seller advertised also a socalled "SPI Reverse Socket Kit" ,
which would be needed, for flashing soldered BIOS chips.
The explanation is that the Nano USB Programmer can't handle flashrom direct connected.
With the "SPI Reverse Socket Kit", the soldered BIOS chip can then be "isolated" to gain full access and to proceed with the BIOS flashing.The full explanation is found here :
http://cafe.daum.net/tualatin/J11z/243So it seems that i must order extra hardware to use my Nano USB Programmer :(
Grtz

@747Builder:
DeLorean,
do you have a link to the exact programmer you have?
and the soic8 test clip?you may be able to just buy 8 jumper wires for your test clip and figure out the reverse wiring to the clip from the programmer.
let me know.
This is my programmer :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NANO-USB-Programmer-for-PC-M-B-BIOS-repairing-with-Economic-shipping-/271313593344?hash=item3f2b8ce400:g:B6QAAMXQrNtR0sQZAnd this is the SOIC8 test clip that i have :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/CTYRZCH-SOIC8-SOP8-Flash-Chip-IC-Test-Clips-Socket-Adpter-Programmer-/122481188471?hash=item1c84729e77:g:rsUAAOSw-3FZDMxEIf have also used internal USB cable from a old case, like this for connecting my programmer to the SPI connector on the motherboard :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Internal-Mainboard-motherboard-USB-2-0-9pin-female-to-female-extension-Cable/142057029855?_trksid=p2045573.c100642.m3226&_trkparms=aid%3D555017%26algo%3DPL.CASSINI%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D41375%26meid%3D7b69eab2420547cab591541b188cc098%26pid%3D100642%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26But i gives me same result each time, device ID : 0XEEEE (see attached screenshot)
So i think for this programmer to work correctly, i have to use the SPI Reverse kit.
Grtz

@747Builder:
Delorean,
From reading the auction listing , it appears your correct you need THERE adapter. and a standard USB cable wont work for SPI. they seen to have there OWN SPI cable as well.
frustrating for sure.im using this programmer http://www.mcumall.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4282
and this test clip http://www.mcumall.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4234
and this for SPI (Does JTAG also) http://www.mcumall.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4310
Thanks, i have done a little research and found the same programmer and SPI at 1 seller from UK at Ebay,
with less shippingcosts then mcumall, and also no extra taxes 8)
Thank you, now i'm sure for hardware that does the job right, instead of ordering different programmers without success.Grtz

@747Builder:
Delorean,
i ordered the same soic8 clip as you ALREADY have and got it today. works great with the willems programmer i got. ive attached a few pictures to show. you dont need the expensive willems soic8 clip and adapter. (though i already had it.)
Thanks for the update.
I'm going to order this programmer also, but you mention the SOIC8 clip,
did you try also the SPI connector next to the BIOS chip ?
I found the SOIC8 clip is not that secure connection, because it can sometimes flip off.
If this occur during flashing, the flashprocedure must be repeated from scratch.Grtz

@747Builder:
NO i havent tried the SPI connector YET… ill have to take a good look at the pinout and make a cable up that plugs in. i make up cables for each different device i use the SPI connector on. ill order the parts tonight
You can try a USB 9pin header cable (the cable from motherboard to the front USB ports in some cases).
The pinsout of the SPI connector are 1:1 as the chip, except the above 2 pins are not used.
I have measured this by a multimeter @ Continuity mode (beep)Grtz

Mentioned back on page 26.. https://tostarcn.en.alibaba.com/product/60037013540-800213290/Intel_B75_LGA1155_1u_Firewall_Server_with_6_LAN_and_Bypass_10_Gigabit_Optical_Card.html
Does anyone know where one could obtain that expanded card with the optical interface? Looks like it would work on an XTM5..
