The 627HF sits on the LPC bus and after you've gone through the BIOS it is visible at 0x0c00. My thinking is that the BIOS maps an address space spanning 0x0c00 to the LPC bus through which it can change the i2c serial address to 0x2c. Or something like that - from tests registers C0A58 and C0A5C of the AMD-766 datasheet don't change regardless of BIOS init or not, so its not those - I'm going to painstakingly dump out all the Function 0 and Function 3 registers to see what changes through a BIOS init - But it's so tedious! (You haven't come across a nice way of doing this in your travels have you???) Very busy at the moment, so I won't get at it for a while.... unless I get bored or something... :o) Cheers, Chris -- Chris Smith Technical Architect - netFluid Technology Limited.
