The CPs appear to be OK, but I don't know how to validate the checksum/CRC of the code section of the ROM. The safest approach would be to find a matching donor ROM (FW version AVF01M0B), and then patch the code section (0 - 0x77BFF) into the patient ROM.

I think it should also be OK to find any donor ROM from the same model and do the same patch. That's assuming that there are no other code overlays in the SA, and that all code is ROM resident. If you can find a suitable donor, I can do this for you.

Code:
Offset(h) 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F
