The Internet doesn't give me a straight answer :(

How do you enable Shadowed...
System BIOS
System Video BIOS

Under WINXP

BIOS: Pheonix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG

BIOS can be flashed aswell

Thanks Zer0x :)
 
Pheonix AwardBIOS should be shadowing the system and video bios' from the factory. If it's not, in the plug and play section each expansion card with firmware on a ROM can be shadowed but you need to know the address that the BIOS info is at then put it into the matching area of RAM. Not fun :P

Doable tho .... but i better be getting a term credit for that :P

Zer0x, have a run through the Motherboard manual (and what mobo do you have). If you dont want to hunt around, the "Failsafe Defaults" should work
