Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your help and your time, I have tested the new .exe but flashrom 
can't detect any flash/eeprom chip on the NIC. I tested AMD and SST chips 
(DIP32 and PLCC32 with an adapter). I have the same card as Idwer, same model, 
same revision. Maybe this card was not meant for updating the chip, after all, 
or maybe the card is blocking write access to the flash chip.

Thank you again, if you need help testing another NIC and Flash chips, just let 
me know.

Regards,

Bruno Rocca

Hi,

there is a pci programmer parameter to select one of multiple PCI
devices but I don't think there is a way to force the driver to use it,
if it does not in its list of supported devices.
I am not exactly sure why we have never added the ID. I think Idwer had
problem with his model, but apparently someone has used the following
patch successfully but it was not merged.
http://patchwork.coreboot.org/patch/4086/raw/

I have applied a similar patch (attached) and built a DOS executable
for you:
