After looking at the picture of the jetway website, and i noticed the layout of the board with the philips tv decoder on it, my coin dropped that i actually own this board.
Still stumped as to how to write to it, the board enable in the latest jetway bios fails.
Does the dos utility work for you?
Output of flashrom failing:

No change no matter what i do.

After carldani gave me some hints on irc, i'm currently blaming the flashchip itself. I think the support for the w39v040b has regressed in the last 13 months, after it was set to TEST_OK_PREW in commit 252.
Dan, apparently you then said it tested ok (and i hope this is your correct email address). What board were you using this rom on and can you test a recent svn version of flashrom?
Thanks,
