Unknown industrial motherboard - how to enter setup?
#1
Lightbulb 
Hi!

I've and industrial motherboard (ex lottery/pos terminal) and I want to install on it a normal linux distribution. Bios is locked to boot only from Master HD on secondary ide. I can't find how to enter on bios setup screen. Normal keys as ESC, DEL, F2, F12 don't work.

Motherboard are nameless.

I made a dump of bios using an eerom reader.
Someone could help to discover how to enter on setup screen or unloock it?

Bios is an Award/phoenix

Here you are:

From reading the bios strings i gather you can press TAB to show the post screen but i cant find any reference at all to what you press to get into setup!

on a more positive note , there was a lot hidden in this bios including overclocking , virtualization and hyper threading which ive unlocked

Once you figure out how to get in the bios (Just hammer all the keyboard Function keys!) this mod should be useful Smile

Flash at your own risk!

I've already tried all functiona keys and all known keyboard shortcuts (ALT+F1, ALT+F2, ALT+DEL, CTRL+ALT+ESC ecc ecc).

On bios strings all reference to setup was removed.
Using Phoenix BIOS Editor there are a way to disable setup keyboard shortcut but this editor need a "original" bios file (rom + header) not just an eeprom dump...
