I have an old motherboard with some SATA to IDE controller and Award-Phoenix BIOS v6. I would like to update my BIOS with the newest controller's ROM. My problem: I am able to extract old and insert new controller's ROM into BIOS with CBROM198, but it's not loaded as new ROM isn't set for needed vendor, device id. Is there a tool/tutorial how to check/change vendor, device ids of option ROM without blindly playing with Hex Editor?

I'm sure that it's about vendor, device id cause I was able to find and compare original and oem controller's ROMs of same, but older ROM version. It's clear that original ROM is set for vendor, device id 1095_1332, while oem ROM for 1002_4379. I need to set new ROM to vendor, device id 1002_4379...
