Looking for Phoenix BIOS chip

#1 Post by richk » Tue Jun 26, 2007 2:10 pm

Where is the BIOS chip located on the motherboard? I am not asking about the Atmel eeprom where the configuration and password stuff is stored, but I am looking for the chip where the flash BIOS is stored.

Thanks

It is below the pcmcia slot, it is a TSOP chip. Sometimes with a white sticker.
