    I would recommend not padding the marker/key combo. It is not necessary.

    Right – but otherwise isn’t it easier than WinHex memory edit?

    I backuped my Insyde BIOS on my Acer Aspire One AO531h. Then i extracted with winhex marker and public key. After i patched my backuped current.fd with EzH2O as Apokrif wrote. After i downloaded my bios update form ACER website, deleted and replaced *.fd file with current.fd and flash my bios. Everest shows that i have SLIC 2.0. What i am doing wrong?

    Hi guys :)

    Can anyone tell how I can get .fd from my Vaio BIOS (it downloads as .exe, and when unpacked contains .exe, some .dll's and 1.6Mb .rom)?
    Ant help would be really appreciated.

    You should be able to open the .rom file with EzH2O. Just select all file types when loading the file.
