Overview
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AMIDEDOS (DMIEdit) is a Desktop Management Interface utility with command line
interface. It allows you to modify strings associated with SMBIOS tables on
AMIBIOS host system.

Features
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The utility offers you to modify following SMBIOS table:

 * BIOS Information (Type 0)
 * System (Type 1)
 * Base Board (Type 2)
 * Chassis (Type 3)
 * OEM String (Type 11)
 * System Configuration Options (Type 12)
 * Portable Battery (Type 22)
 * System Power Supply (Type 39)

Requirements
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Supported Operating System
  AMIDEDOS Utility is supported only in following operating system:
   * MS-DOS environment

BIOS Requirements
  System BIOS should have the followings:
   * SMM eModule with 4.5.5_SMM_20_01 label or later.
   * SMBIOS eModule with 4.5.3_ALPHA_02.06 label or later.
   * Aptio 3, 4, 4.5 and later.

Getting Started
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation
  Copies the AMIDEDOS.EXE executable file to any storage location accessible by
the host system and then run AMIDEDOS in command prompt.

Usage
  AMIDEDOS <Configuration File Name>
   Or
  AMIDEDOS <Command 1>
   Or
  AMIDEDOS [Option 1] [Option 2]K..

  Configuration File Name
   The input file includes at least one SMBIOS Table entry. Each SMBIOS table
   entry contains the SMBIOS table type name followed by the strings to be
   edited. User can use a text editor Or use "/DMS" command to create an
   example file. Default file name is "CONFIG.DMS". Following lists the example
   of SMBIOS configuration file:

  Rules
   * Any parameter encolsed by < > is a mandatory field.
   * Any parameter enclosed by [ ] is an optional field.
   * For command part 1-7, if parameter present, the WRITE function is going to
     update else READ function will be enabled.
   * For command </ALL>, if Output File Name present, the SMBIOS information
     will be saved intothe file else it will be displayed on screen.
   * Using </DMS> without parameter can get CONFIG.DMS file in same
     directory, otherwise, the user-defined output file will contain the
     example syntax.
