Hi, I'm having some trouble upgrading the Silicon Image 3112a ROM in a Epox 8RDA3+ mobo
A long time ago I updated it to v4.2.50, that works nice, I run a Kingston (Intel X25) 40GB SSD on it, works great...
Now I wanted a Blu Ray drive aswell, no dice, system boots and finds the thing, but it can't read the Bluray disc (A DVD however works just fine)
So I went about updating the ROM again, however with the latest version it did not even recognize the Blu Ray drive, and with the interim versions the system hung when it tried to boot off the SSD drive (It did recognize everything though)
Is it possible the address for the ROM starting code has changed? (So I need to tell the System BIOS to look for a new boot address?)
I noted the filesize on the ROM is smaller on the newer versions...
I used CBROM v195 to do the testing, here is a copy of the files and BIOS if anyone care to take a look: (URL removed, see posts further down...)
