[REQUEST] Gericom Extreme - Adding RAM settings to bios

[AaronZ]

I have a Gericom Extreme laptop from 2004 which uses desktop DIMMs. The bios has no RAM options even under AMIBCP. The speed and timings are set automatically. I bought some "gaming" ram to use (DDR-400 PC3200 with timings of 2-2-2-5). Unfortunately the bios will set the speed to DDR-333 (memtest86+ shows DDR-320 2-2-2-5). I want to be able to force DDR-400 2-2-2-5. Please help, this ram would be a nice boost for it.

How are you going to install the rom file if I add the setting for DRAM frequency?

[AaronZ]

Well, there's two ways although only one is available to me currently, there is a flashing utility Gericom provided that runs under DOS, booting into it via CD or USB.

The other is that the bios chip is a PnP chip, you can remove it and use a programmer but I don't have one and I'm not sure which one I would need since the laptop is from 2004, I'm not sure if I would need to find an older programmer for it.

On another note, did you find anything regarding the GPU? Because that is also removeable and I own an ATI Mobility 9700 which plugs into it but there's no picture output, not sure if there's a whitelist in the bios. The GPU module may be faulty but it does get power / heats up.

I don't think there's a whitelist. From my experience, to run a different MXM card you have to change video bios, which is often embedded into main bios as oprom.
