Good point, there probably is: - The GM45 datasheet has ways to determine that, so on nehalem there is probably something similar. - Flashrom also has ways to determine that. - GM45 RAM init probably also have ways to determine if HECI is present, I didn't check yet. Note that I don't have nehalem hardware to test with, and may not have the time to work in a full solution. Denis.
