Bios chip question

Can a bios chip from an 8RDA+ rev 1.1 be flashed to use in an 8RDA3+ rev2.x ?

No - although the flash parameters are the same in terms of LPC bus and voltage, the size of the eeproms is different, thus making incompatible.

8RDA+ = 2megabit
8RDA3+ = 4 megabit

Sorry!

To elaborate a little further

8RGA = 4 megabit
8RGA+ = 4 megabit
8RDA = 2 megabit
8RDA3G = 4 megabit
