    This question relates to my original question posted here: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/how-to-trigger-hardware-id-change.86086/

    I want to modify info in the BIOS such as version, manufacture, serial, asset tag, etc so that it can trigger a change to the unique hardware/machine ID a Windows app generates.

    I have a Dell Inspiron 5558. Its my understanding the BIOS manufacture is AMI. I tried using tools such as AFUWIN, AMIDEWIN and DMIEDIT posted on this forum to dump or edit the DMI of the BIOS but all of them resulted in errors.

    Can someone please guide me in right direction?
