I have a hopefully very easy request. Just one change. Take this bios files and change the internal revision(system date) date from 07/07/2006 to 12/21/2010 or some other newer date within a few years of now. I am working on getting on with convergys@home and they will not support pc's 6yrs old or more and their test pulls up this "07/07/2006" and fails. I have upgraded this old D8400 so that it passes all their tests but this one. please help a brother out and at the very least point me to the proper tool to mod this one myself. its an older one but all my old utils are long gone. System Date Unfortunately we are unable to support PC's with a manufactured date older than six years. ftp1.us.dell.com/bios/d8400a09.exe thanks alot badab
yeah that doesn't help though broke obviously looking for work. Can't afford a new system now. how hard is it to change a string A09 7/7/06 to A09 12/21/2010? at least point me to the older tools to do it myself.
Thanks a lot now to build a rescue drive. The slic bits won't brick this board will it? trying to be safe cant afford to kill this puter just now.
