    That is because it is a Phoenix style bios, that means it needs to be modded as any standard phoenix bios, Takasuite has been doing most of those in this thread..

    It might be worth putting a note by the Mini 9 entry on the first page that Mini 9 A05 is the same bios (apart from the splash screen) as A90 A04. ie that the eqivalent A90 revisions are one below the Mini 9s.
