Hi, I am trying to add SLIC 2.1 marker to lenovo ideacentre b500. I checked with Slic Dump Toolkit and found it has LENOVOTC-5Y as rsdt. I couldnt find that string in the collection. How can I add marker to my bios. Thanks
For the marker tools you would need exactly the LENOVOTC-5Y marker 2.1 and find the right tool therefore.-To use any other ID you would have to go for a biosmod. We don't have that marker...a biosmod / Daz loader is your choice.
Sry.. but another question. Which Cert and Key must i use? If anyone can help with this, it is very much appreciated.
Hi, a while ago we discussed the leaked lenovo phlash16.exe file that enables users to flash a SLIC MARKER instead of a modded Bios. Now i'd need to send my T400 in for warranty and my Thinkpad actually never had any SLIC / Marker installed, as it came with no OS. Is there a way to CLEANLY remove the Slic marker and get my system back into the state it came from, just in case they notice that i tampered with the SLIC Marker. Would appreciate any help. Thanks.
You can check the usage of the phlash16 marker tool by running it from pure DOS with the help switch /H It should show you the command how to disable the marker. I can't do it here...but... I had a look with a hexeditor: It should be: Code: phlash16.exe /W:DISABLE or phlash16.exe /W:DISABLE /Z Code: Offset 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F 00005F30 20 20 20 5B 4F 50 54 49 4F 4E 53 5D 3A 20 20 20 [OPTIONS]: 00005F40 20 2F 57 3A 3C 6D 61 72 6B 65 72 66 69 6C 65 3E /W:<markerfile> 00005F50 20 57 72 69 74 65 20 4D 61 72 6B 65 72 2E 20 20 Write Marker. 00005F60 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00005F70 20 20 20 20 0A 00 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 .. 00005F80 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 2F 57 3A 44 /W:D 00005F90 49 53 41 42 4C 45 20 20 20 20 20 20 44 69 73 61 ISABLE Disa 00005FA0 62 6C 65 20 4D 61 72 6B 65 72 2E 20 20 20 20 20 ble Marker. 00005FB0 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 0A 0A 00 ... 00005FC0 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00005FD0 20 20 20 20 20 20 2F 4D 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 /M 00005FE0 20 20 20 20 20 20 43 68 65 63 6B 20 6D 61 72 6B Check mark 00005FF0 65 72 20 73 74 61 74 75 73 2E 20 20 20 20 20 20 er status. 00006000 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 0A 00 20 20 20 20 20 .. 00006010 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00006020 20 20 20 20 20 2F 44 69 73 61 62 6C 65 64 3F 20 /Disabled? 00006030 20 20 2D 20 43 68 65 63 6B 20 69 66 20 4D 61 72 - Check if Mar 00006040 6B 65 72 20 69 73 20 64 69 73 61 62 6C 65 64 2E ker is disabled. 00006050 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 0A 00 20 20 20 20 20 .. 00006060 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00006070 20 20 20 20 20 2F 53 6C 70 32 6D 61 72 6B 65 72 /Slp2marker 00006080 3F 20 2D 20 43 68 65 63 6B 20 69 66 20 6D 61 72 ? - Check if mar 00006090 6B 65 72 20 69 73 20 73 65 74 2E 20 20 20 20 20 ker is set. 000060A0 20 20 0A 0A 00 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 ... 000060B0 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 2F 48 20 20 20 /H 000060C0 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 48 65 6C 70 20 Help 000060D0 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 000060E0 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 000060F0 20 20 20 0A 00 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 .. 00006100 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00006110 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00006120 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00006130 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00006140 20 20 20 0A 00 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 5B 53 55 ..

Lenovo doesn't check for that IMHO..(too much effort and why a suspicion?)
Thank you Yen. I think so, too, but it doesn't hurt to know. Especially since most of the retail Thinkpads actually come with a marker anyways. This is just a weird student bundle that comes discounted without OS...
