    You've tried to flash the 7X version, there are x200/s with 7X and 6D versions of bios.
    I have modded the 7X version for AlexTT..please confirm you need 6D (bios version starts with 6D)

    Hi Guys,

    I have a Thinkpad 1802 with a wireless card that failed. I installed a new unit and now have the 1802 error. I have tried to download the SLIC Bios from this site but get an error when trying to install Platform Signature not found when using WinPlash64 (I am using Windows 7 x64) and an issue about administrator rights when using WimPhlash 32.

    Current Bios level is 2.27

    Help please.

    Hi All,

    Does anyone know if anyone was able to remove or suppress the 2010 error that the thinkpad t43's get when using a "non-approved" HDD?

    I looked all over, but did not find anything pertaining to this possible mod.

    Thank you!

    lukee tries to find a way and asked me for help. Unfortunately I haven't had time to look at that again.

    @dvrcthewrld
    When you re-compress the whitelist modificated BIOSCOD module, you'll get a lot of different bytes.

    Andyp's tool is reliable to mod Lenovo bioses.
    But you may flash my mod..it's confirmed to work and you can run any other wlan card..

    Have you asked AndyP again and told him about your new findings? He's a lot more skilled regarding disassembly.

    I've tried, no reply from him for last ~3 months. I've also tried to contact Zender here and on ThinkPads forum. No success.

    Andy usually replies if he should have an idea. I guess it's difficult to modify...even for Andy.
