    Hi,



    i think i did, but

    the instruction is not really clearly.

    I flashed the "$0A6A000.FL1" which includes the whole winflash tools, after that the "$0A6A000.FL1" file into the folder who contains only "6auj13us" folder & the "instructions.txt" several times..


    [Edit]

    after the 5th try it works! ths a lot for ur help..

    I was able to flash the first bios (wich was an older as i had) via the winflash update funktion, and after that
    i could flas the actually fw version from you..

    [/Edit]

    RSDT != Pubkey == Marker

    Well, based on my experience, I wouldn't say it's a simple either-or.

    I have seen cases such as this, where XSDT matches but RSDT doesn't and Windows still activates.

    However, while modding VMWare bios (phoenix), I fixed the RSDT Table but somehow missed the XSDT and Windows wouldn't activate even though SLIC dump tool reported everything was fine (obviously, since it doesn't take XSDT into consideration).

    To me, the activation logic seems more like this:
    If XSDT is present, it must match the SLIC for successful activation and RSDT is ignored. If XSDT is not present, RSDT must match the SLIC for successful activation.

    You are right, since I'm modding always both I didn't examine that because there is no advantage to mod only one of them.
