Hello Rudolf > Is SMM (system management mode) code accessing SMBus cotroller? > If so what are the algorithms when bus/controller is not ready? Ans : I can not get your real meaning of SMM. Is the data sheet of M1563 south bridge advantage to you ? I try to connect with Abit to get one copy.

As to this question, I'm asking the help of my manager, so that I can send this question to Abit. > What we have seen with bit 6 set could lead to following: > that some code did a kill transaction or device reset.

Yes, the method I'm trying is not precise, I know that, I just modify the codes in that way so that 792 driver can work temporarily. :-) It must be modified in the future, Could you give me more guidance about your above proposition? Because I know very few about the bus driver, You may just give me the modified codes if you can.
