When I talked about deprecated entries i was talking about the two "Hewlett-Packard" entries 00a1eecb and 3ba155e1. I know that cd4e1902 is current. Probably I'm doing something wrong, but don't know where. I put the 4 oembios files in the "Oembios files" directory, run the utilty and select 5. run changer, 3. just replace them and 1. for xp pro But losing this much time on a pcchips motherboard is useless. Thanks again to all those who tried to help me.
