Probably depends on the hardware. I'm pretty sure that *some* eeproms are writable. > Is it because the BIOS is stored there ? Remember that the BIOS is stored in one of what may be several eeproms in the system - graphics cards and other controllers probably have their own eeproms. You might want to think about why most systems do a restart after updating the BIOS, and then ask yourself if you really want to write to it while the system is up.... > Is there a way to make it writable ? Depends on which eeprom you're talking about.
