I have this IBM PC 300GL model 6287-920.
The bios is in german,i want to change it to english.
I looked the entire bios for an option with word Sprache which means language in german and i cant find it.
How do u change the language?
If I remember correctly, you have to program the bios with a rom with another language.
In a quick search I came across this.

Only problem is ,the bios in the link 32 A ,is older ,then the one installed 36 A.
That is ofc,if i deduced corectly from the screenshot i atached,that the bios version is NH36A.
I didn't pay attention to that, sorry. The IBM models of that time that I know are very curious, for example you can find a 300GL with a pentium mmx and a 300GL with a pentium ii. I can't find a newer bios.
Maybe the version is different because it is for Germany?
It's a guess, I don't know.
Here is the main .TXT to 36A for PC300GL - 6287: http://greyghost.mooo.com/pccBBS/commercial_d … top/nhjt36a.txt
and the bios file: http://greyghost.mooo.com/pccBBS/commercial_d … top/nhjt36a.exe
it may not work as some IBM (and others) use a .lng or .lan file to tell which language to flash. so yours would remain German
but in the options is the country code. /UK or /US for english
there is a japanese version from IBM too: http://greyghost.mooo.com/pccBBS/commercial_d … top/nhj236a.exe
that is all I know about that ;p
Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

Think the latest version level is 37A (NHKT37A) which you can download here - ftp://ftp.oldskool.org/pub/IBM_PC_BBS/commerc … top/nhjt37a.exe - note that NHJT37A is the diskette level which contains the NHKT37A update
Succes
