Ok I have tried to use bcpvpd but it was not working because of an
incorrect input file format.

So I have done the following steps now:

1. Extract the .wph file from Bios .exe file (result see my last answer)

2. Loading the .wph file into Phoenix WinPhlash v1.7.16.0 to get some more
information about the Bios (see attached log file)

3. Decompressed the .wph file with PhoenixTool v2.11 into several single
Bios module files.
I guess it is the same what bcpvpd would have
