Amended Bios - Will pay $$$
Posted: Sun Jan 31, 2010 9:32 am
Hi Guys,
I am after an amended default bios for the DT366.
I have a project that requires that I change the default COM port to COM2 2F8/IRQ3.
Now this is one of the options available in Bios Setting so no issue there. However, under certain circumstances, especially if messing with the batteries, or the little coin-cell CR1220 bios battery goes dead, the tablet resets the bios back to default mode - changing the default com port back to COM1 3F8 / IRQ4.
For those of you not in the know, the Penmount driver will only use the default bios registered com port to load its driver for touchscreen, so when this reset occurs, you have no more touchscreen, and no way to input info without clamping on a keyboard and going back into bios to reset this. And halfway up a mountion with you GPS, you sure as hell don't have a keyboard in you anorak!
I am looking for someone to either supply me with a amended bios bios where the default COM port is one of the other default settings, plus I want to change 4 other things from their defalt settings to one of the other options. Then I want to reflash the tablets (I have quite a few to do). I do not expect anybody to do this for free, and will pay in $ via Paypal - please email me to negotiate.
On the other hand, if anybody knows how to get the Penmount to associate itself to another Comport, not the bios registered Com 1? I will also pay good $ for the proper working resolution.
Guys, please try the above options, and know they work before asking for the $s, after all I do not want to the the research myself.
Oh, I forgot to mention - I AM RUNNING XP PRO SP3
Regards
