Thanks for your reply. I tried doing as you said, I used the HP Utility to make a bootable Windows98SE boot disk out of an old 32MB SD Card, and it booted fine but Aflash2 though told me that /All was an invalid switch. I'm using AFLASH2 that is on the ASUS website as a download attached to my laptop's BIOS downloads, it says it was modified 13/11/07. I did the flash without that switch and when I booted up again it stills says DELL_QA09 rather than ASUS SLIC. Is it safe to use another version or aflash2 or is there something else to try or...? Thanks a lot, Peter
Bootsect.exe /nt60 all /force eliminated the SLIC ! Yahooo!!!! - Reflashing the BIOS with the ASUS mod right now
Em.. nor Everest nor SLIC dump toolkit shows slic in this bios (at least in that one that is inside my laptop currently) - and this rom version was dumped from it.. can't figure it out..
