Shuttle SX48P2 E - request for intel option rom mod

[mcsHammer]

DMAN999 excuse me - I dont want to bother you or anyone else - MANY MANY THANKS for your help already done!!!

and ok, I got it - for sure - I am writing exactly what I would appreciate: is it possible for you to easily mod the the bios SX48SE05 linked below with the 10.5 / 10.6 / 10.8 versions of the OROM?

Here the exact link for BIOS download.
FTP Folder: http://download.shuttle.eu/Downloads/Barebone/SX48P2_E/Bios/
BIOS File: http://download.shuttle.eu/Downloads/Barebone/SX48P2_E/Bios/sx48se05.bin

For further explanation and for understanding: as you can imagine, if someone is actually not really skilled in something => only asking, reading and trying is the way to learn - thats for sure. Skilled persons are needed to transfer knowledge, to help, and you will surely understand that if someone dont know everything its not always possible to specify 100% whats is wanted.

i think you are exactly right - its my fault! But, there is surely no information out in the WWW why there is an SX48UExx Version available, in official channels only the SX48SExx is linked for download.

SO TO MAKE A COMPLIMENT TO YOU: I thougt you exactly and dedicatedly took this SX48UE05 version because of some specific reason I am not aware at the moment. I thougt maybe its better perfomance, or its outstanding stability or because its easier to mod - you are a professional and I am interested to BIOS MOD now for about 2 weeks...
So please understand that I am not able know everything in this area within short time! I am flashing BIOS versions since 10 years but modding is completely new to me as you hopefully know - and you were the first one which I was talking more exactly about this stuff - and you immeadiatly helped out - thanks again

The bottom line is , since you have the Hardware in question it is up to you to do the reasearch and REQUEST EXACTLY what you want.
Why should I spend hours researching something that I don't have the hardware to test ???

No Problem.
Hopefully one of those will work for you.

So I also talked with a very skilled modder Fernando - he also helped very immediate today me an my buddy (also owns a SX48) and also tried the mod and told me not to use an intel orom higher than 10.1. because of some compatibility reasons... I cant determine if there is really higher risk of not working - I am trying, but really hoping not to destroy the boards bios anyway.

Here for other interested the SX48SE06 bios file from fernando with orom 10.1.0.1008: http://www.bios-mods.com/forum/attachment.php?aid=3323

I don't remember, that you have asked me for a permission to publish a link to that "modded" BIOS, which I have flashed for you at January 6th on the basis of your personal request via eMail.
You wrote, that you are going to test it next morning (January 7th) and to give me an immediate information about the test result.
Until now I haven't seen any feedback from your side. Instead of testing the modded BIOS yourself, you obviously are trying to find other users, who are more courageous than you.

Hi Fernando, nice to see you! But please do not be mean, I was stuck with a bios hang not reching OS with my computer.... now i have a new bios chip and a self modded bios through learning from you and DMAN999!
