trying to mod the bios to work with tualatin cpu's
this is gigabyte 6RX motherboard with AMI bios https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/gigabyte-ga-6rx

currently board will stuck at post code 29 when tully inserted.

i can confirm board is working with tualatin just by reflashing to another 3rd party board with AWARD bios, but there other issues like pci routing table and non working fdd/lpt/com/onboard audio/etc.

i found a part of code in the bios related to cpuid:

The attachment ami.jpg is no longer available

trying to nop nop JNE after checks but still code 29.

i'm out of ideas. is anyone is familiar with AMI bios modding? where is another cpu check may be?
