MSI abandoned this board back in 2003 shortly after it was launched. However, I convinced them to do some additional BIOS work, but MSI never came thru on their promise to post the new versions to their website. I've put all the MS-9131 BIOS's I have [1.20, 1.27, 1.32] at http://trang.nuxi.org:8080/x86-64/MSI-9131-BIOS.zip ** THESE SHOULD BE TREATED AS BETA QUALITY! ** ONLY FLASH WITH THEM IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND CAN RECOVER ** FROM A BAD FLASH. I only have releases note for version 1.20: 1. This is AMI BIOS, third formal release. 2003/11/28. version 1.2 2. Added Feature: (a)Add support for all series of AMD Opteron(up to 248) (b)Updated AMD memory reference 3. Problem Solved (a) Fixed the issue that SuSe-Linux 64Bit BOOT with USB-CDROM will hang. (b) Fixed the LSI-22915 U160 SCSI card will hang on POST. (c) WakeUp from S1 fail if pressed KBD/moved Mouse during it entering StandBy. I probably have emails at work stating the changes in version 1.27 and 1.32. So I'll have to look for those later. I know that in at least 1.32, I finally got MSI to come to the realization that the standard serial console configuration is 9600bps. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.
