Tomos Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 Is there any way to see what bios are flashed without going through all of the switch combos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaosEngineer Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 If you can boot into the X3 Config Live screen (hold the white button down when booting the X3 BIOS bank either 1-4 or 5-8 and named the BIOSes stored in the banks when they were flashed. The BIOS Tools section to select a BIOSes in the various bank sizes 256KB, 512KB, 1MB, 2MB bank(s) the assigned names of each bank stored when they were flashed will be listed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaosEngineer Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 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: Press A Select Bios Bank Naming then Press A The list of names assigned to each bank is displayed. Or, Select Bios Bank Select then press A. Select Switch to 256k BIOS 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
