I did a detailed analysis of the 4DUV VER 3.1 BIOS and I couldn’t find any omissions or bugs in the DX4 support. It is all there, just like in many other late 1994 BIOSes.
Because all L2 cache and DRAM timing options in the CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP menu were hidden and operated on automatic only, I restored them so you now have manual control over these settings.
While I was at it, I fixed the Year 2094 bug, the 2GB HDD size display limit bug, and added Am5x86-133 support as well. 😉Here is a copy of this “patch J.2” BIOS to play with. I hope this helps with your DX4 problems.
Cheers, Jan
Hi, sorry to resurrect such an old thread (of mine). Is there a BIOS Flashing Utility I can use to flash this to the original BIOS Chip OR do I have to use an external programmer?
I have tried various AWDFLASH versions and none of them seem to work.
