Available for hire? #3

Open Eddiiie opened 6 months ago

Eddiiie commented 6 months ago

Hello, I have a very old custom system that is locked down by design (locked good). I'd like to at least enable keyboard support so I can get into the BIOS and see if there is anything in there I can disable other 'features' they have done to make life difficult for anyone trying to bypass their features.

A lot of this is over my head. I really want to learn more, but it can possibly take years for me to get up to speed.

On that note, are you available for hire to take a look and see what can possibly be done to make this system operate like a normal PC again?

The maker of the modular cpu design is Kontron.
The cpu modules are made by Adastra The BIOS is Phoenix Old Celeron CPU

Many programs in BIOS... Need to jump over.

Thank you

Hi @Eddiiie,

Thank you for your consideration, but BIOS RE is primarily an in-person task, requiring numerous (tens, hundreds...) reflashes to test certain conditions and gain a better understanding of the BIOS/ROM in question, so it's hardly something that can be done remotely.

I have another repository called AMI_BIOS_CodeInjection where I have some written material about BIOS RE and I do intend to write some more. There's a lot of interesting stuff about AMI and Award that I plan to cover there, but unfortunately, I lack the time at the moment.

There are also links to other materials there, so you might want to consider following the repository.

can you send me a picture of the inside of your topbox? This bracket mounts to 2 smaller brackets. I am wondering if you have those other 2 brackets.
