Yiiiha! 996F1P07 work! Thank you very-very-very much! :)
Great, i hope it does also boot afterwards ;) I have added your board to our list of supported boards and will commit this later together with other small changes.
just one additional question…
Found chipset "Intel H55". Enabling flash write... The Flash Descriptor Security Override Strap-Pin is set. Restrictions implied by the FRAP and FREG registers are NOT in effect. Please note that Protected Range (PR) restrictions still apply.
This "Flash Descriptor Security Override Strap" setting caught my interest. This is configured by a physical pin of the chipset and Intel's documentation very clearly recommends that there is no way to enable it on shipped consumer boards (not to speak of making it the default), it is just for debugging. My question is: did you notice a jumper on the board that might influence this (maybe labelled "write protection" or similar) or is there an option in the "BIOS" setup to change this?
