The Gigabyte 785GMT-UD2H has a fully functional dual SPI flash bios
circuit. Peter's circuit is for boards that leave out one SPI flash
device and you if wish to use a toggle switch to choose between the SPI
flash device you wish to boot from.
The Gigabyte 785GMT-UD2H has everything already soldered in place. You
just need to use the patch for ITE it8720/18 dual bios that Vadim Girlin
wrote, or something very similar. It worked for him on his Gigabyte
GA-MA770-UD3 AMD 770 (RX780 / SB700) with ITE IT8718/20.

hi peter,
there used to have too bios chips, but i remove the B_BIOS, just
leave the M_BIOS which means the main bios .
I am pretty interested with your method. Is that useful for the
other Gigabyte mainboards like my 785GMT-UD2H

Please see

And there's info about this as implemented on the GA-M57SLI-S4 board
on http://stuge.se/m57sli/
Do you have two flash chips populated, or only a single one?
