Can anyone help me to learn how to load different BIOS in PBL 1.3.5i?

Every BIOS I select it just switches to a screen with loads of info on Decrypting 2bl...
ets to the point of "Looking for insertion point" (of 2Bl I assume) and hangs. What might I be doing wrong??

Sorry, didn't answer you quick enough before mitsu got ahold of your other post ! LOL :) Anyways, did you make sure to use BFM Bios in the Bioses folder? They have to be Boot From Media Bios, or they will not function properly. You can also convert standard bios to BFM with xbtool. You shouldn't need to change the RC4 keys to load a different bios in PBL1.3.5i, but did the original bios you loaded with it work in the first place?

Yeah the orig bios worked fine!

I was wondering what BFM meant - so I need to grab hold of as many BFM bios as I can - ahhhh... that might be my problem. I'll go in search now.

Thanks alot for the help - I appreciate it!

You can get them from xbins, they have all of them in a "collection" package.

Pants - can't FTP from work - firewall won't let me. Thanks for the info - will need to search for it elsewhere. Do you have a filename for it, please?

Worked a charm mate!

Also discovered that some stuff doesn't seem to run from multidisc games so this has sorted nearly all my problems.

Thanks again for the help.
