Greetings, I have the datasheet for that, but not an actual chip. It looks similar to Intel FWH, except that there is no software block locking, and there is a 4K sector erase command. It is worth noting that there are 2 write protect pins on the device. One for the boot (top) block, and one for

e7500 flash

2002-11-01 Thread Andrew Ip
I have a e7500 with 82801CA. Before running the lastest flash_rom, I run 'setpci -d 8086:2480 4e.b=1' to enable bios write. Although flash_rom sees the flash, it fails to erase. Any idea? Or is there other way to flash it? -Andrew -- Andrew Ip Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel:(852)
