(The size info has nothing to say, actually. It was set to 0x80 in BIOS 3166, too. The area reserved for the Video-BIOS is 64 kiB.) According to Intel they won't support 1400x1050 in their Video-BIOSes. They say it's the job of the OEMs to modify the BIOS supplied by Intel accordingly. > Could this be a true drop-in replacement? I wrote a program to load the BIOS and replace the old one (NO, it will NOT be released). The problem is: The new BIOS is not configured correctly for the hardware. It worked more or less in my case, but I think this could lead to whole lot of problems. > Could this replacement lead to any hardware damages etc.? Sure, in the worst case. As I wrote, the BIOS not configured properly.
