BIOS Dumps
These are dumps of ROMs from hardware I own. Most have been dumped using a TL866-II USB programmer, though some were dumped via software means in the case of soldered ROMs (ROM type is typically left blank when this is the case). I have tried to include extra info where possible to assist anyone that wants to use these for research such as emulation or cross-flashing.
Please note that all images here are copyright their original owners. I am making these available for historic purposes, as most of these are no longer easily obtainable, and so that owners of the original hardware can use them for maintenance and upgrade purposes. Also, I do not provide any support for these images -- I take no responsibilty if you break your hardware by using them. :)

| ATI | Radeon 9700TX | AGP | Infineon DDR BIOS 2002/09/23 | 52 KB | This is a slightly lower clocked 9700 made as a Dell OEM card. 52 KB seems like an odd size, but seems to be in line with other R300 BIOSes available online. This was dumped in software using ATITool. | Download | |

| NeoMagic | MagicGraph 128ZV | PCI | 40 KB | This video BIOS was dumped using NSSI from a Panasonic CF-M31 laptop. I have no idea if it is user-flashable alongside the main BIOS. | Download | ||
| Nvidia | RIVA 128 ZX | PCI | v1.0-90 1998/04/20 | 32 KB | AT27C256R | Dumped from an STB Velocity 128 card. I checked and this really is a ZX, which is weird cause the only ZX's I have seen online are AGP. | Download |

| Amptron | DX-6900 | v1.7 | AMI WinBIOS | 1994/07/25 or 1995/12/01 | UMC UM8498F | 64 KB | 27512 | This board was produced under the names of several different manufacturers, for instance it is also known as the PC Chips M912. I am not sure what version mine really is; the manual I got with it just calls it "80486 Deep Green" with no company markings. The date 1994/07/25 is in the ROM, but the date 1995/12/01 displays on screen (and can't be found looking at the ROM in a hex editor!). | Download | |

The date 1989/03/20 is at the top of the ROM, but the date 1989/09/15 can be found at the end of the ROM. This board was dead so I don't know which date, if any, shows on screen. | Download |

| Gateway | Tabor II | PhoenixBIOS | P14 2000-10-31 | Intel 440BX | 128 KB | Dumped from a Gateway G6-450. This is the Gateway OEM version of the Intel WS440BX. | Download | |||

| MTech | R418W2 | AwardBIOS | Revision "Kw" 1996/02/16 | SiS 496/497 | Bestkey | 128 KB | 27C010 | This board should be the same as the Rise Computer R418 to my knowledge. The little Award logo in the top-left corner of the screen shows some corrupt lines. Not sure if this is expected for this BIOS (mastering error?), but it has always looked like that for me with this board. | Download | |

This could also contain (in compressed form) the VGA BIOS for the NeoMagic MagicGraph 128ZV graphics, but I'm not sure, so I dumped it separately (above). | Download | ||
