Bios Manufacturing Date !!!

[Google]

Now you can know the date when your motherboard was manufactured ,
you can do this by dumping the memory and creating a simple batch file which is:

@echo off
echo D FFFF:5 > 1.scr
echo Q >> 1.scr
debug < 1.scr >MDATE.txt
del 1.scr

Copy this code and paste it in notepad and then save the file as *.bat (batch file)
when you enter the batch file a file will be created named "MDATE.txt", you will find a date, that date is the BIOS MANUFACTURING DATE !!!

It's A Good Trick, The Computer I'm Using Gave Me The Date: 04/15/02

Anywayz, Can You Explain More What You Did? I Mean, What's That Language You Used And What Did It Do Exactly?

[Google]

I used the DOS language which is dedicated for windows ...
you can write DOS using either cmd.exe or command.com ...
a batch files have the extension ".bat" these files contain DOS commands, when you run the batch file the commands are executed automatically line by line by the computer ( you use batch files to create automated programs that execute a number of commands without user intervention, of course you can write these commands one by one using cmd.exe )
Code explanation:
1.the "ECHO" can be either ON or OFF , when it is on it displays the code on the screen ,when it is OFF it don't display anything on the screen unless we type: " echo something " ( ex: "echo hello!" ,a hello! will appear on the screen)...
2. ECHO D FFFF:5 > 1.SCR
ECHO Q >> 1.SCR
the first line creates a file named 1.scr and writes the string "D FFFF:5" in that file.
the second line writes the string "Q" in the same file.
Note: the second time we used '>>' instead of '>' because we don't want to overwrite the file so the second string won't replace the first string it will be in the next line in the file 1.scr .
3. '>' and '>>' are for output
'<' is for input
4.after we finished writing the two stings in the 1.scr file, we pass (input) this file to the debug.com program by the '<' operator and we asked to output the result on a text file named MDATE.txt instead of outputting it on the screen by the '>' operator.
the debug.com is a program that comes with windows, it has its own commands (here the strings in the 1.scr file are commands for the debug.com)
debug.com is used in software programming and engeneering to fix and optimize programs and other purposes...
FFFF:5 is a memory location (segment FFFF and offset 5)
D FFFF:5 is used to dump (see) what's in this memory location...
Q is to quit the debug program and return to DOS
5.finally we delete the file 1.scr that we created before ...

windows dos programming is wide,hope you enjoyed this small tutorial and you will be able to write programs in the future...
if there any question feel free to ask...
