RU v4.81

Important new feature:

Main feature of this version is that RU will record where you have been and you can go back and forth.

You can use [CTRL-left arrow] and [CTRL-right arow] to go back and forth where you are in the RU.

For examples, if you just read a PCI device with BAR and press [CTRL-G] to read the MMIO. After you check MMIO you want to go back to the PCI device you just read, you can press [CTRL-left arrow] to go back to PCI device without re-entering the bus/device/function numbers. The best thing is: it even remembers the register index for you.

Maximum 10 history can be recorded. Of course the oldest one will be replaced with newest history.

Ex: You have entered 3 different configs like pcitures below:


Config 1 =
SMBIOS, index 35h


Config 2 = CMOS, index 076h


Config 3 = Memory C000h, index c7h

You can switch these configs by pressing [Ctrl<- and="" trl-="">] like:
Config 1 [Ctrl->] Config 2 [Ctrl->] Config 3 [Ctrl<- span=""> Config 2 [Ctrl<- span=""> Config 1 [Ctrl<- span=""> Config 3


Version 4.81

  1. User can go back to where it was for 10 times of history
  2. New pull-down menu "Go" is added
  3. Added all MSRs for Intel CPU, total 261 MSRs
  4. CTRL-G will go to all base addresses including IO, memory and ROM in PCI BARs
New Go menu:
  • "Next" - Switch to next history [CTRL-right arrow]
  • "Previous" - Switch to previous history [CTRL-left arrow]
  • "Clear all history" - Clear all of your footprints
  • "Mem/IO space" - Goes to memory or IO based on the BAR reads from current cursor of the PCI device
Version 4.80

Added back code for:
  • Auto-detect SIO
  • HDD read write test
  • SMBUS access
  • Change color
  • Wrong BIOS warning in About window
Again, there are always bugs, let me know if you found any.

RU v4.79

This version is mainly fixed the problem of reading CPU MSRs and also add lots of MSRs for AMD K8 series.

Again, this has not been fully tested, there could have bugs. Please write comments if you found any bugs.
  1. Added all AMD K8 MSRs. Invalid MSRs for this CPU will be displayed as RESERVED
  2. Fixed always switch to ISA if no PCI is present when RU setting file is present.
  3. Fixed CPU MSR display messed up by flooding register area.
  4. Changed warning messages of non-AMIBIOS from popup to command line.
