Not all BIOSes listed in VGA BIOS Collection

MaKCuMyC · May 2, 2012, 07:06 PM

Why?
I try to submit my BIOS to collection with GPU-Z but get message that it is already in collection. I search on page but can't find it.
So I noticed that GPU-Z display the ID of BIOS in collection but to view it in web I need name of vendor, memory size and date of BIOS compilation.
I collect this info and enter it. And found it. So why it isn't public?

i have to manually approve every single bios that gets uploaded. this is the only way to ensure that people dont enter wrong info intentionally or by accident.

if you need a specific bios that's not listed, make a forum thread here and i'll usually check the non-public uploads manually.

the backlog is 40,000 bioses, so nothing that can be fixed quickly

You should make a At your own risk BIOS download page. Then a Checked stock BIOS download page, still at your own risk of course.
