    Well... You're right. Sorry.
    I think my Hex editor made me a joke... Or my eyes...

    I don't give up that fast! I couldn't try for my ideas since the flashtools refused to flash so my corrected sums couldn't take effect to the second check.

    Tomorrow I'll try it again!:D Patched flasher of mutante and the corrected sums!!!
    See you all again! ;)

    Yes, thanks for trying. There are some different ways to set the bytes for the sum. This time I've used two sums right after the 2 markers. Tomorrow we can try just one sum at the end of the bios. I have to go to sleep now. See you tomorrow!
    One partial success we've got already...to patch bioses with one marker only....good night to all!
