(extract these files somewhere you can access from the machine from which you want to program the ROM with. Floppy, Hard Disk or CF card) Configuration files FLASH.EXE “Lo-tech XT-CF flash utility” For flashing config to ROM XTIDECFG.COM XT-IDE configuration editor XT.BIN Pre-configured for XT class machines (8088 & 8086) AT.BIN Pre-configured for 286 and higher machines AT-INT.BIN Same as “AT”, with support for internal IDE controller Update for cards with ethernet: Cards with the new optional ethernet use I/O port 0x300 for the network card and have the XTide moved to port 320, they thus require a new configuration files, use the files with 320 in the name for these instead. Example: XT320.BIN instead of XT.BIN Which pre-configured BIOS to use for which Toshiba portable? -Use “XT.BIN”for XT class machines. T1100 PLUS T1200 T2100 -Use “AT.BIN” for 286 and higher machines. T1600 T3100(e)(sx) T3200sx(c) T5100 T5200(c) -The “AT-INT.BIN” file is only for portables that also already have an IDE controller on board, only use this if you want to change out the internal HDD for another IDE drive or adapter. The original Toshiba BIOS has a lot of restrictions when it comes to HDD’s, it often only supports a few specific Conner disks. With this configuration the BIOS on our board will also control the internal IDE controller therefore bypassing the restrictions of the original Toshiba BIOS. T1600 (not /40 model, it doesn't have an IDE controller) T3100e T3200sx(c) T5100 T5200(c) Flashing a configuration to ROM. 1: Make sure the config (.BIN) file is in the same directory as the Flash utility. 2: Run the following command: FLASH “CFG.BIN” “base-address” With “CFG.BIN” being the configuration you want to flash. With “base-address” being the base address for the ROM, “C800” on my board. EXAMPLE: FLASH XT.BIN C800 3: After Flashing is done, reboot. Editing a Configuration. This is only for if you want to change something about the pre-configured files I've made, for example: change the default boot order. 1: Run “XTIDECFG.COM” to open the configuration editor. 2: Open the configuration you want to edit with the “Load BIOS from file” option. 3: Change the configuration as you like. 4: use "Save BIOS back to original file" 5: Exit the configuration editor. 6: Now you can flash the configuration. IMPORTANT: after editing a configuration always use the “Save BIOS back to original file” option, do not try to flash from within the Configuration program. Use the stand alone Flash utility as described above.
