    I'm pretty new at this and have an Advantech PCM-5824 SBC with a saved BIOS that cannot be read by Modbin6 and trying to use Modbin v4.50.80C I get the following message

    Warning…
    This BIOS contains new feature(s) that this MODBIN cannot handle! Please contact AWARD to update a newer version of MODBIN.EXE. Thank you for using AWARD products!

    Is there an OEM version of Modbin that will read this BIOS file?

    Yes, the last version of modbin can't open it. But the old v4.50.82a open it. Or you can use cbrom.exe to read/extract/append data to this bios file.

    Thanks OffOn...I think the BIOS I saved is corrupted...Modbin 4.50.82 also displays the same message but I found the original OEM Bios file in another saved directory and it seems to run OK so I'll have a go at this taking note of PS1 to PS4
