Enter X3 Config Live (Hold White Button while booting the banks that hold the X3 BIOS)  either banks 1-4 or 5-8 (1MB in size).  Select BIOS Tools:

then press A.

the list of BIOSes stored in all the banks is displayed.  Select one and press A to boot that BIOS bank.  Note, the X3 BIOS shows 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 and 4/4 next to each 256KB bank.  It is a 4*256KB BIOS (1MB).  To boot it, you need to go back and select the proper bank size to switch to 1mb, not 256k.  The BIOSes in banks 5-8 shown are all 256KB in size. They have no 1/4...4/4 or 1/2...2/2 next to the name that a 1MB or 512KB BIOS name would have displayed next to it.

Press B repeatedly to go back to the Main Menu.
