    AFAIK, you should use USB Flashback to override the write protection.

    Hey Conghoaxa1,

    Thanks for the suggestion. I tried with 2.08 and ticking the two options but same issue.

    Any other suggestions?

    Did that with the original unmodified bios that came with the PC and it works.

    Next I tried the Newest Bios for my PC and it worked, this is when the Rw-everything
    report was made.

    Then I tried the modified by me, using Poenix Tools 2.14, Newest Bios and get the error
    bb - Error: Rom Image Layout detected RomHole is redesigned when I try to flash.
