    Too bad. In that case I think FILE1.ROM must not be movable. The uncompressed FILE1.ROM does have text strings "SST" and "Winbond" in it, so it is probably flash related. If it can't be moved up then the only other way to increase the ACPI table size would be to shift the 6 modules that follow it down, but that seems even less safe.

    Your bios:
    Code:
    stn.bin
    cpucode.exe
    AWARDEXT.ROM
    FILE1.ROM
    AWARDEYT.ROM
    ACPITBL.BIN
    crisis.bin
    audiodj.bin
    mbios3.bin
    l5c0814a.bin
    asusosb.bin
    osb640.bin
    FF bytes
    award decompression bios
    FF bytes
    other code
    award boot block
    zeroes
    other code
    The only other possibility is to edit other text strings in the ACPI like "creator id" and "creator revision" to try to make the new compressed ACPI the same size as the old one. It might be possible...

    Thanks for the quick reply. I am new to this, so do I use Winhex and put back the string and simply save? Or is there more to it?
