There was a LOT of hidden advanced settings in this bios - so many that i had to get rid of some of the "less useful" options to get everything to fit. Some funny coding makes the Others Menu only display 5 items :S

Anyway , flash at your own risk , here's a screenshot

This is an easily doable mod, it is possible the wrong image was uploaded. I will check with the OR ASAP>

In the ISO, there are two places where BIOS image can be found:-
1) In the boot sector
2) In the ISO - "2444D230.IMA"

The modified BIOS is located in "2444D230.IMA". If using the ISO (burn to a CD) to flash BIOS, BIOS is actually flashed with original file. To flash BIOS with the modified BIOS, will need to extract the "2444D230.IMA" contents or restored it to a floppy disk or USB flash drive. Then flash BIOS using that floppy disk or USB flash drive.

is safe to flash via usb ?
let me try extracting it, because the only room that has the img is the one that is inside the .ima its alaa230.rom, let me try one more time
