I have a multimeter. > Could you see if the SPI > flash chip is connected to the Super IO? They are about 5 or 6 cm apart. I took some additional pictures of the area between the superio and the soic chips. There's an unpopulated patch that is marked as 'SPI_EN' near the superio chip - not sure if that is related. Looks like it would fit a jumper or a 2 pin connector of some sort. http://ward.vandewege.net/m57sli_soic_detail.jpg http://ward.vandewege.net/dscn1656.jpg http://ward.vandewege.net/dscn1657.jpg http://ward.vandewege.net/dscn1658.jpg > If I get a high-res photo of the Super IO and the flash chip area I > can mark the pins that should be connected on both to get a yes/no > indication. Yes please :) Let me know if the pictures suffice.
