Posted on 2021-11-19, 15:22

I recently fixed up an IBM 300GL 6282. The BIOS is very similar to your Aptiva, my guess is they are from the same period. I went from Pentium MMX 166 to Pentium MMX 233. I wanted the BIOS in Italian and to do so I had to reflash, luckily the utilities and the bios can be downloaded from this site …

Cool! Did you customize the BIOS screen? How about some benchmarks? :) Thanks for the answer, what kind of tests do you recommend to do and with what software? For the BIOS there is the possibility to customize the main logo and the secondary logo at the bottom right. 16-color BMP images should be …

You must use a GLIDE2X.OVL file from an older Voodoo2 driver since the ones that comes on the recent drivers has compatibility issues. Also it seems that a patch is required but you are using the demo version of the games. The GLIDE2X.OVL file included on games are usually meant for Voodoo Graphics …
