Asus Eee PC 1000HG

I'm trying your modded BIOS now What would be really great is if you could increase SHE and unlock memory timings like the other guy in this thread did: http://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-Pr...eePC-1000H

That thread led me to this site in the first place

Hi from Germany,

I was googleing "1000hg bios update" and came to your thread.

Guess what? I am going to change the original hd to a ssd, so your
great work comes in handy. - But!

The bios update is not working. I am using alt-F2 and a
fat32 formated 2G-Stick.

USB-Device gets found.... READING 1000HG.ROM
and thats all what happens! After 1 hour I switched
off and rebooted.... still 0603 BIOS!

I tried AFUDOS-way, but the "rom does not support afu"
said the afudos.

What else can I do? Which way may I use?

Any help is preciated.

Hi Camilo,

great, your new mod does the trick! You're really a big expert - my deep and honest respect.

The AHCI-mode with your modded BIOS speeds up the SSD of my good old Asus Eee PC 1000HG!

IDE-Mode with original BIOS:

Windows (7 SP1) Experience Index: 6.8

AS SSD Benchmark 1.6.4194.30325
Name: CRUCIAL_CT64M225 ATA Device
Firmware: 2142
Controller: intelide

AHCI-Mode with modded BIOS by Camilo:

Windows (7 SP1) Experience Index: 7.1

AS SSD Benchmark 1.6.4194.30325

Firmware: 2142

So I think it will make sense to replace the old CRUCIAL M225 with a newer and bigger CRUCIAL M4 - SSD.

Have a nice day!

P.S.: For your good work I donated a little amount.

Thanks Camilo,

Also worked great on my EEE 1000HG!

let's try to resurrect this very old thread  I am also interested in the SHE support for this bigger brother of the 1000H. I am trying to refurbish one 1000HG I have at home for a very long time and use it as a small media centre. So I am gonna flash AHCI modded bios now, and maybe if some guru will find some time, I will definitely try anything else.
