Quantum3D AAlchemy SX BIOS modding
18.05.16 at 09:40:04
 
Hello everyone!

Being a proud owner of a complete Quantum3D AAlchemy SX system, I've been willing to max it out (without any hardware modding), including installation of P3-S 1,4GHz Tualatin CPUs with the corresponding PowerLeap adapters.
The system comes with a Tyan S2567 motherboard with a heavily customized Quantum3D BIOS. Original boards came with an AMIBIOS, while Q3D utilized a PhoenixBIOS 4.0 rel. 6.00 with a fullscreen Q3D logo and cut down BIOS setup options.
As I'm not a skilled programmer myself, the only thing I've managed so far consists in a dumping of the original Q3D BIOS ROM: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/CsXk/Q6kFxa3Ye
So, I'm currently looking for a person that could do the following (the services can be remunerated):
1. Add Tualatin microcode update to the original Q3D BIOS ROM.
2. Extract the Q3D logo from the original Q3D BIOS ROM.
3. Add Tualatin microcode update and the Q3D logo to the latest version of the official Tyan AMIBIOS: ftp://ftp.tyan.com/bios/2567_105a.ZIP

Also I would be more than happy to do the same (add Tualatin microcode update and the Q3D logo) to the Intel L440GX+ BIOS (used in the Q3D Mercury systems).

If anyone is interested, please feel free to post here or send me a PM!

While lurking and lurking and lurking... I've managed to cope with the second point myself! Smiley
