Fix for a CSM BIOS bug affecting old OSes
License: BSD Zero Clause License
CREGFIX ======= CREGFIX is a small program that works around an issue of many modern CSM BIOS implementations where certain control register bits are left "dirty", thus causing issues when trying to run legacy operating systems such as Microsoft Windows 9x (see "While initializing device VCACHE: Windows protection error" issue). This program can be built using "nasm": nasm -DCREGFIX_BOOT cregfix.asm -fbin -o cregfix.img nasm -DCREGFIX_COM cregfix.asm -fbin -o cregfix.com but included in this repository is prebuilt "cregfix.{img,com}" files. The ".com" version of CREGFIX is a DOS-compatible .COM executable which can be added to the beginning of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and it will sanitise the control register bits every time DOS boots up. Alternatively, the ".img" version of CREGFIX is a PC booter floppy disk image that will sanitise the control register bits before any OS runs. Write this floppy disk image file to a USB stick or a real floppy disk using a utility like "dd" or "cat". On Windows, a utility such as Rufus (in dd mode!) or balenaEtcher should work. The written disk can then be attached to the target PC, booted from, and it will chainload the first hard drive after sanitising the control register bits. If using a USB drive, make sure that the BIOS is emulating a floppy disk drive. Make sure to tell the BIOS to boot from the USB/floppy drive first in order to automate the process of running the CREGFIX chainloader.
