Flashed this BIOS to a FIC K8M-800M board with VVC09EM BIOS and it works fine! It's awesome! I believe it is most likely a hacked retail ROM to resemble the OEM ROM or something like that I would be interested in the specifics of what you did ROM to come up with this "unlock" of the features. I have yet to overclock the CPU, and probably won't keep it OCed, but will post the results when I do. I'm running a Sempron 64 3300+ (2.0Ghz) with a mere 128KB L2 Cache

If it says PheonixAward , then thats the same as Award and you can flash
Where will i find this? in the BIOS or is there something on the motherboard that will say? I just don't feel like shutting down my computer right now if its not necessary.
I have a program (i don't know if you're familiar with it) called SIW. its a system information tool that give you info on everything in your system. its free and pretty useful. Under my bios area it says:
BIOS Vendor Phoenix Technologies, LTD
BIOS Version 6.00 PG
Firmware Version 111.101
BIOS Date 07/26/2005
BIOS Size 512 KB
BIOS Starting Segment E000h
DMI Version 2.3
Characteristics - supports ISA
- supports PCI
- supports Plug-and-Play
- supports APM
- upgradeable (Flash) BIOS
- allows BIOS shadowing
- BIOS ROM is socketed
Read the AWARD Recovery Tutorial , located in the Tutorials sub froum
Decide whether you want to flash - bios modding is risky business and flashing could possibly "brick" your motherboard. While you can follow the recovery instructions , recovery doesnt always work , in which case you will need either a new bios chip or a new motherboard.
