    Quoting this. Has ANYONE tried flashing their mobo with this yet? I'm getting mine in the mail next week and I'd like to know this.

    Sorry, but I kiled my self saercing the forum for a solution to run ACPI Scope on Vista x64 and found none.

    You can do this although it is a litle complicate:
    Install Everest Ultimate and go to Motherboard section and select ACPI.
    If there is SLIC under the ACPI section look for the adress of the SLIC and write it down.
    Now open HWDirect and go to the Memory Dump section.
    In the adress field write the adress you got from Everest and on the Size field write 176 and press dump.
    Right click over the dumped strings and clcik select all and copy.
    Now open WinHex and insert them inside by clicking Ctrl+I make shure that ASCII is selected.
    Save the file from the WinHex and upload.

    I did as you asked and Everest does not show the SLIC table.

    You will find Windows flashing tools intended for "safety of flash beginners" are NO safe if looking back by a couple of pages on this thread.
    EVERYONE should flash from PURE DOS (booted from a diskette) even though whatever their BIOS manufacturer is.

    The bios binary is usually compressed unless it is developed for working on a real mainboard.
    You will need a developing tool for AMI bioses if you want to see an embedded code.
    (Why not flash first if you have a mainboard for it, and then you can see it on Everest etc...)
