Hello,
I used dmicfg.exe (in pure dos from boot floppy) to edit dmi table of the Intel/AMI BIOS on an intel
D815EEA motherboard. Wanted to set oem as Gateway.
It uses Intel 80802 FWH device.
Evidently It was a success, however, I noticed I mispelled Gatway (forgot the "y") now it says "GATWA" without quotes.
I ran dmicfg again, but now I can't change the Manufacturer.
Dmicfg pops up "ERROR! Problem with operation, DMI is read-only.
I researched the 82802 FWH, and know which pins are reset, etc. but nothing worked by shorting (with 10k resistor) the rst# pin to Vil (if high, resets the lock-bits to 0F,or access all), if Vil is low, then read only.
Question is, did dmicfg set it as read-only, or not?
Anyone know how to reset it with software?
Or jumping?
It is soldered, or I'd stick it in my burner.
