Hey all, i really want to get into bios disassembly and modification, programing in some sort of C language.
and eventually start to make my own apps, i realize this wont happen today or tomorrow, but i would like to start today, or tomorrow, and by next year have some good knowledge under my belt.
i would like to set some goals, and my first goal is to properly disassemble vga bios, and start to learn to understand what i am looking at.
i have experience in disassembling gm p4 ecu rom's, and creating definition files using addresses found in disassembly, which allowed a program(i did not make) to change the values in a rom file to make the ecu do what i wanted.
i guess i just want to take past experiences and be able to apply them, in greater depth and understanding to the vga bios world, so in the future i can do "what i want to do" via a program (that i wrote) to my vga bios and perhaps motherboard, etc.
dont really want to go to school for this, as i dont plan on making a career out of it. at least i dont see that happening, but i guess that depends how far i go, if i like it and whatnot.
so what would be a good place to start, i tried learning c+ couple years ago but that failed due to lack of proper guides on the net (outdated), and program compiler versions. it really was discouraging :shadedshu
so i think i would like to focus on disassembly
if anyone links to guides older than 2010, i'll shoot you lol
