    Whitch I mean with make some changes is to insert the DMI information (whitch I lost) to my BIOS file then flash it.
    I tried to do it using DMIEdit & DMICFG, but these information are write protected (PnP error)

    Why r u insert the dmi n then u flash the bios? What I know it will be disappeared again if u use /all switch. The right procedure (from my experience) is flash the bios n then insert the dmi data. If u can insert the dmi with dmi tools, have u try flas**t for restoring ur dmi?

    My BIOS is gone with a wrong BIOS flash, after that my Notebook has no longer started. So I deside to make an SPI Flash programmer & I disassembled my Notebook, unsoldred the BIOS Chip, then flashed the entire BIOS EEPROM using my SPI flash programmer, I soldered it back to the mother board. My Notebook is alive but the dmi info are gone
