 |

Hi,
I am in the designing stage of one project. I want to diagnose a PC from a remote location when the PC is in OFF state. So the BIOS POST result should be accessed.
1) USB device cant be used as it will be violating USB 2.0 spec. and BIOS should be modified which is a risky process
2)PCI card cannot be used as the user has to remove the CPU cover
3)Printer port and serial port cannot be used as many of the PCs dont have those facilities.
Now i am trying to make it possible through PC Network card. Is it possible to control the PC network card and access the BIOS POST result by a microcontroller outside of the PC? Can anyone please explain the interface to the network card by using network cable ?
Thanks,
Navya |

Perhaps you misunderstood the purpose of this site ?
Here we only deal with development for the Playstation 2.
That is what the abbreviation "PS2DEV" stands for.
As I understand your project description, it has no connection at all with any playstation console, in which case you won't find much help here.
