Part Two - BIOS ROMs of the WYSE Sx0 - S50

-
Image
  The ROMs:      VSA Init ROM:  (Virtual Systems Architecture)  is a piece of software that is hiding the real hardware from the OS and is emulating standard hardware like keyboard controller, IDE controller, CMOS and other legacy hardware.       The Geode, rather than carrying lots of legacy hardware interfaces that are presumed to exist on x86 systems that might be painful to implement on a highly integrated, low power processor, the Geode often emulates such interfaces by use of software that is invoked by special traps that take place when the processor accesses these devices.     This emulation is made at the hardware level by setting some Model Specific Registers (MSRs) that control the GeodeLink Interface Units (GLIUs). This GLIUs can trap CPU access to some defined memory regions and run some ISRs from VSA software instead, or route the access to some other devices. VSA system is a TSR software(Terminate and Stay Resident).     In the image above you can see the real hardware a

Adventures of reverse engineering the WYSE Sx0 – S50

-
Image
     A few months ago I've bought this WYSE thin client model Sx0 - S50. I wanted to make a retro game machine from it but soon I've realized that I can't make it boot from the DOM with MS-DOS 6.22.      This was interesting because the system was able to boot MS-DOS 6.22 from a USB memory stick. So I've started to investigate the cause for this.      On the first hardware inspection I’ve found a small memory chip on the back of the PCB, an 8 pin SOIC EEPROM “ 93C46A ” that is not bigger than 128 bytes. I’ve dumped the content of this chip using the CH341A (mod-ed to read 93C chips) and all I’ve found was the serial number of the machine: 6IFDGB03427.  You can find the contents of this chip in  here .      Then I’ve start to read more, searched all the internet for documents that might help me understand this machine, and I’ve found some that I’ve put in here .         There you can find documents  about the CPU , the CS5536 Companion that is actually a Platform Contr

Sound Blaster 16 emulation for DOS 6.22

-
Image
       Reversing this WYSE machine BIOS I have learned that this CS5536 chipset together with the VSA software can emulate a Sound Blaster 16. By default the BIOS exposes the audio AC97 device directly to the OS on the PCI bus. But there are settings to be made for the BIOS to hide this AC97 and emulate a Sound Blaster 16.       This will be great, because all the DOS games and software are compatible to SB16 by default, and there are already made drivers for SB16 for the MS-DOS. This way it might be possible to have real sound on the DOS.     At some time there was an XpressAUDIO ROM, provided by the AMD, that had made this emulation possible. XpressAudio is actually a VSM (Virtual Support Module) that was not included in this VSA ROM of this WYSE BIOS.     For short, the VSA ROM is loaded by the BIOS at system power up. The VSA is searching for all included VSMs and is copying them to separate segments in higher memory (CPU is in real mode and this memory is hidden from the OS).  The
