Acer Aspire 5733Z issues with Win 10 Pro

$

This laptop shipped with Windows 7 Home. Installing OEM Windows 7 x64 Pro or Ultimate goes fine and self activates. I use gatherosstate.exe to get the genuineticket.xml file. Tried both a clean install of 10 Pro x64 and an upgrade in place from 7. I put the XML file in the right spot and reboot.

Windows 10 claims it cannot activate, no product key found. "We found a Windows 10 Home digital license for this device running Windows 10 Pro. To Activate using this digital license, you need to install Windows 10 Home". How it gets that when the XML file was generated on 7 Pro...

When I did the clean install of 10 Pro it acted as though it had self activated. I was able to change things in Personalize. Then I let it touch the web. That's when it popped up as not activated.

Is this something new with build 1909? I've never ever had this fail to work putting 10 Pro onto any PC that originally shipped with *any* version of Win 7.

AcpiTbls.rw from the laptop attached. Hopefully someone can tweak this thing to understand it should have 10 Pro.

Leaving off everything after the file name causes a 404. If that doesn't work here's the download page https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/su...t/3680?b=1

If I have to first install an older version of 10 then upgrade, I can do that. I already do that using 1607 for older laptops that need drivers with deprecated signing methods. Worst case I'll just put 10 Home on it. Tongue

Already put an i5 CPU in it and replaced the defective 5400 RPM 500 gig aith a 7200 RPM 500 gig.

Edit: I have run into a similar bogus not activated (but not bogus incorrect version!) issue on a complete new build desktop with a retail boxed copy of 10 Pro. What fixed it was letting it get all updated with Windows Update. I'm currently having the laptop do that. Fingers crossed that it fixes itself. Bloody stupid of Microsoft to have this problem in the first place, and even worse that they haven't fixed it in the 1909 build.

Edit 2: Nope. Getting it all updated didn't fix it.

Hi, 
Is it possible to mod the bios of this laptop, Legion Y545? I was told I need an SPI-Programmer and a SOIC8 clip. How do I use them to dump the bios? This is my first time doing these things, so I need help.

Which SPI-Programmer do I get? And which SOIC8 clip?

I’ll donate after someone tells me, and mods it.   Big Grin Big Grin

I need to downgrade my devices bios from v 1.20 to 1.05. I upgrade the device and now battery and performance has dropped. The bios exe file will not permit downgrading.
Files extracted from the 'A4DBH105.EXE' file are Ding.wav, FlsHook.exe, FlsHookDll.dll, FWUpdLcl.exe, H2OFFT-W.EXE, iscflash.dll, iscflash.sys, iscflashx64.sys, platform.ini Vpro.fd, xerces-c_2_7.dll. When H20FFT-W.exe is executed additional files NoneVpro.fd and platforms.fd are created and disappear when closing the application. I've tried editing the platform.ini file to allow force downgrade ect. but ini file must be embedded into the .fd file as and platforms.ini is created. Only way I can thing of downgrading is by editing the platform.ini file embedded in the .fd or a windows app that will allow dow grading but I'm unsure how to do this.
Please can anyone assist?

MCP61PM-GM V2.2 AMI BIOS CPU SUPPORT

I have Emachines ET1331G-)3w with a MCP61MP-GM v2.2 AMI Bios and would like to put an AMD 1045t in it.  But have not had any luck finding a bios that will work on this board.  I have tried the ones in the MCP61 thread to no luck.  I have come across an older thread showing that it is possible, but that thread ended in 2012 without the ROM being posted.

I have tried 3 different versions of AMIBCP editors and they all give the "Couldn't open the file" message.  Have also tried the MMTOOL V3.22 editor to try and the CPU IDs i need and I get a "The CPU MicroCode Patch file does not of proper" message (I wouldn't doubt that i am not using this one correctly though).

Im not looking to overclock, just wanting the CPU support.

But the 6470M never goes on (i've formated that computer like 30+ times with different windows variations, cuz as i said i've tryed everything that i could find in web and lots of em was from 3th.Party sites.)


          Anyway i want that bios'es unlucked version to check if there is an option to make that 6470M Gpu to select as primary.iF any of you have any other suggestion about that situation i'm ready to try.

How do I read supported CPUs from BIOS microcode?

$

0
I have an MSI x58 Platinum SLI.  I can access the newest MSI BIOS for this board using MMTool.  Under the "CPU Patch" tab, I see 12 entries with CPU ID ranging from 06A0 to 06C2 with several repeated with differing revision levels.

The CPUID codes do not seem to pertain to any CPU code and stepping as far as I can tell..

I want to see if the BIOS had the microcode for, for example) the Xeon W3690

How can I find out what all of the supported CPUs are from the BIOS ROM file?

Aopen Digital Engine DE65-HA Borked--needs help!

$
0

First post for quite some time--not sure if this is the best place to ask questions?


I semi-bricked an Aopen Digital Engine DE65-HA.

It has an AMI eufi bios. What I get is drive seek (on Dvd) or USB--but black screen and no boot. I have tried working with the AMI recovery procedure using a USB stick, and although it enumerates it on first boot, it does not seem to go back to flash drive and do anything


Coincidentally, while I was banging around the interwebs, I found at least one other person did this--like me, he also flashed with the bios for the DE65-HAI (which I now know has differences in configuration--including support for Intel ME 8.x which is why I was messing around with it--Aopen has not patched any of their older bioses.

From this post, I see this other person was skilled enough to remove the bios for reprogramming--and was able to edit a file provided for another (similar) AOpen machine. https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/need-bios-to-aopen-mp67-d.35286/

One option--remove the physical bios chip and reprogram which seems beyond my ability. (No bios backup--working when you are tired is always a bad idea!)

Second option seems to be using the clip style reader with CH341A software. Questions:

Are there better or worse sellers of these devices on eBay? 

If I purchase and get the corrupted bios read and dumped, is it possible to have someone walk me through compiling a working bios?

Is there any way to implement the newer version of the Intel Management engine found on the incorrect bios, so that it would be workable on my machine?

(The latest correct bios (v. 1.03) is still available for download, although it is not the complete bios, if the other person who made this mistake was correct.)

Thanks,
Dean (I was here before as paredown--but lost my password and couldn't figure out what email it was tied to...)

Asrock H97 killer, is it hopeless if there's no BCLK options found in AMIBCP?

I want to overclock bclk, but it isn't available in the bios, so I tried using AMIBCP, but it isn't even a hidden option, it's no where to be found, is there no other easy way to do it?
In the user manual it shows that it had a BCLK/PCIE Frequency setting in the bios version L0.26, but I don't think it had ever been released to public, can't find it on it's product page or google.
extra question, what happen if I change dram frequency over 1600MHz in AMIBCP on my 1600MHz locked board? is it dangerous or it won't do anything?
It doesn't look like there's anything interesting I can unlock in my bios from AMIBCP.

MSI X58 Platinum SLI BIOS, what CPU are supported

$
0
0
I have an MSI x58 Platinum SLI motherboard which I am hoping to update to a Xeon W36xx (right now I have a W3670 available).  Currently it is running an i7-920 at stock speed with 24 gig RAM and MSI bios 3.9 (the most modern one available from MSI).

I have not yet tested it with the Xeon, but I will do so tomorrow.  The BIOS update info suggests that they added Gulftown processor support prior to the v3.9 bios.  But I suspect it may be only for the 980x, 990x family, and maybe not the Xeon versions of those cpus.  I am not sure what will happen if the CPU is not recognized by the BIOS.

Do I need a modded bios for the W36xx series of xeon cpus?  If yes, is there one already made that has support for the w36xx series or even more modern LGA1366 Xeon CPUs?  Where would I find it?

If the W3670 works well, then I may look for a good price on an unlocked W3680/W3690, or maybe a later CPU as long as I can be pretty sure it will function properly on the mobo.

ASUS MB - How to Flash Mod'd Bios

$

Hi everyone,

This is my first post here so I hope this is in the correct section.   I'm also new to BIOS mod'ing.

So here's my project - I'm trying to modify the BIOS of my Asus P8Z77-V Deluxe to support NVME booting.   I've used the MM tool to modify the BIOS based on some other reading on the internet.   But I get  a Security Verification error when trying to load the modified BIOS using the Asus Easy Flash utility.

So I think I need to use some sort of alternate flashing utility/tool.    Or I've read about flashing the BIOS using a bootable DOS TD.   Any guidance would be appreciated before I dive deeper into this project.

Thanks ! Chris

Lenovo B590 variants

$

I'm confused. I have Lenovo B590 which now has bios version H1ET85WW(1.23) and 20208 would be the most likely version according to other users who also have this bios version . However if I enter my serial number at Lenovo website it proposes H9ET92WW as latest bios update. This does not work when updating and throws an error.

My laptop has Core i5-3230M and HM77 chipset and already updated ME FW version 8.1.72.3002 . But planning to disable/remove it when getting more at ease with bios modifying.

What does H9ET92WW.exe check ? Is it slic code ? So that only devices with TP-H9 slic code get this update ? CPU-Z shows laptop as being version 62742BG . I understand there are also 20206 and 20208 versions....

I'm also trying to remove whitelist. I extracted body with uefitool. Can someone tell me what language this is in so I can read up on the syntax and understand the subroutines and functions. I found it at
jmp     short loc_B39 => mov     r8, cs:off_258  ; "1802: Unauthorized network card is plug"...
But how to change so it jumps over whitelist check ?
Trying to figure it out for myself instead of having to ask people. I would be glad to learn something new Cool

How can I flash H9ET92WW ? End goal is: keep w8 key from MSDM table and slic 2.1 and remove whitelist.
Slic should be no problem as marker tool fl2.exe should write it again according to TP-H1.DAT file ?

Thank you for pointing in the right direction Shy
