and voltages and if there is a bios menu improvement too or hidden things?

Are you sure there are any hidden menus in the BIOS at all?
Are you sure this particular motherboard is even capable of software controlling any voltages?

It’s easy to update the just microcode.
But this is an Award Modular PG 6.0 BIOS.
It should most likely boot Tualatin even in its default state, without any modifications.
How is the motherboard actually performing with Tualatin at the moment with V4.6SLCP Nov.1 BIOS ?

Hello, I don't know if it has a hidden menu, I know that with a patcher bios you can look, but I don't know how to do it, at least it detects the tualatin well, I have an adaptor but it hangs up because it doesn't detect the cpu well, it puts pentium III EB, it doesn't put tualatin 1400, it hangs in the post sometimes in the memory menu, sometimes when it reads ide discs, now I remove it and I'm using 1.0 coppermine pentium III, the bios is the last one on that retro web page

The issue with the 256k L2 cache on the Tualatin is a real headache.
Only this utility will help here.

Can you help me by injecting the tualatin codes, especially 1400/512/133? Because although it detects the celeron it gives it high voltage believing that it is coppermine 1.63 v puts in Everest, can you help me?

It's just that I don't know how to do it, can't you flash it to me and give it to me ready to install?

Let’s start from the beginning.
Your motherboard cannot adjust the voltage via software.
The voltages for Socket 370 are set by the VID pins on the processor.
Please provide high-resolution photos of both sides of your adapter.
We’ll get to the BIOS a bit later.

It's powerleap neo-s370/t only 100/133 pins no volts pins

The PL-Neo/T doesn't have voltage adjustment (it's fixed at 1.55V). You'd need the PL-370/T for that ability. Also, QDI don't seem to support any 512K cache processors, even on earlier Tualatin boards like the 6T or 10T, though the 12T does.

1. There wasn’t enough space for the microcode, so the antivirus software was remowed
2. I don’t believe in miracles, and I’ve never been a fan of Biospatcher myself.

These adapters are a bit of a nuisance; I don’t like them —you never really know who made them or how they work.
You need to check the connections on the adapter when it’s plugged into a socket without a processor on a powered-down motherboard.
