Hi Fabian,

you should be able to use the code that supports other versions of the
P5LD2-VM mainboard to enable writing. Something like this:
flashrom --programmer internal:mainboard="ASUS:P5LD2-VM DH" -w modded0404.rom -o ./flashrom-write.txt
Should work, I think.

Can you please provide us with the output of the following command so
that we can add auto-detection for your version too.
lspci -nnxxxvv

The MD5 mismatch might be normal. The BIOS might use the flash memory
as persistent storage area... that is common nowadays.
