ok.. sorry I didnt do it quicker for you, heres your mazda boot logo which has been added to the bios file i0100113.bin for the M10000 motherboard. I havent tested it but cant see a problem. I have had to make the image smaller to make it fit within the bios size image..

download it HERE

cheers

O.. can anyone also confirm if any of the prev ones I've done work.. So I can edit my posts to say 'confirmed working'

Also if you have made some yourself up.. please post em up for others to use.. Please only post ones that you are 100% that there fine as we dont want anyone to be testing a faulty file. Also remember to post what bios file they were made from and what board there used on.

cheers

I have attached the altered bios image.. its the latest one downloaded from epias site.. the original bios name was ' i0100113.BIN '. Just flashed it up with the normal award software (also attached). This might be a whole new crazy.. who knows :-)

REMEMBER :- DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.. IT WORKED ON MINE BUT FLASHING YOU BIOS IS ALWAYS RISKY !!!!

CDR, You rock!

That's pretty nice of you to make bios changes for people.

Don't know if it's possible, but I thought I'd ask if you can change my laptop bios to display the FORD logo you posted earlier. If it takes more than a little effort, don't bother.

I have a Compaq x1058CL with bios files attached. I can also send video bios if you think that's important.laptop bios on hp site

Also, do you know if I can change the 'return from Hybernate' with a program like bootskin? Just thought of this, forgive me if the question's already been answered somewhere.

Thanks in advance,
Rob

If you have a bad-flash, and screw up your bios, you will not have a dead motherboard, just a dead bios, and im not sure how you would re-flash a badly flashed bios. Some motherboards have whats called a fail-safe BIOS, to where if you screw up the first one, it will automatically boot from the second one. Anyways if you mess it up, plan on purchasing a new pre-flashed BIOS chip.

usually if the bios is useless the motherboard will try to load a new one from a floppy after 30 seconds or so. BTW can someone just make a nice picture with the new "monte carlo" cursive script for me? i don't have M4d skillz in photoshop yet and i just need the picture i can do the flash myself

OK - just a small point here.... I looked at this for my Via 800 ( Files on my site ) but as I use an external vid card I don't even see the boot screen. I think the point I am trying to make ( unless I am the only one with this problem and a Liliput ) is all this time spent - yep looks nice on the desk but is it worth it ? For the XP Boot screen & welcome menu I would say yes it is - but then I am lazy.

I can see your point when your on about a different video card, but I would of thought you can still see it as long as its enabled in your bios. Maybe not only guessing.. as for 'is it worth it' . Now its done I would say YES.. but was it worth doing.. well It was more the fact 'could I do it ?' if you know what I mean.. like most things I do.. I have found its not the money nor the time.. its just setting myself a goal and seeing if I can get there. I'm sure your the same as are alot of people on here.. its not the money its the enjoyment of building or doing something yourself.. finding problems and overcoming them, not the going out and paying someone to do it.

Its just something else that makes it stand out alittle more :-) I havent played with the boot screens yet.. thats my next mission .. after I come back off hols that is

Steve

Well I finally had a chance to flash the bios and it was successful. Not that GMC is a very popular brand around here, but I'll show you what it looks like anyway.
