Re: Where to find BIOS bootscreens?

I managed to extract the updated BIOS ROMS from BIOSTAR's website via the Wayback Machine (in particular the BIOSTAR ROMs I scouted were AwardBIOSes, hence the following). Then I would load it up with CBROM.EXE (16-bit; I used an NT4 VM to make it happen; can use DOS or any old Windows to run it) into cmd with "CBROM.EXE [insert BIOS ROM file here] /D" (case-sensitive) to fetch a list of the ROM's contents (making sure to look out for instances of "LOGO"), followed by "CBROM.EXE [insert BIOS ROM file here] /[LOGO ID] /extract", where I would be prompted to enter a name to save the extracted file as, which I would do [somefilename.pcx] or [somefilename.epa]. After saving it, I would copy the extracted file over to my host system. On my host, I would use Konvertor to convert it from EPA to BMP (so as to make it easily viewable in a common picture format). I then load the newly converted BIOS splash into mspaint and then save it as a PNG, and the upload it to AVID.

Hope that answers your question! :) MindsEyeTHPS (talk) 02:13, 29 December 2023 (UTC) MindsEyeTHPS (talk) 00:54, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
