    While I am genuinely extremely appreciative of this effort, I would like to learn more to do this myself. I have experience in the past with editing in replaced device ID's into an older model HP firmware and re-flashing, however, I seem to keep hitting dead ends with the "last generation" Lenovo firmwares. (Dumping usable PBE Rom from *.FL1). Are there any updated guides or an IRC channel or anything that I can idle in to read/learn more about this process?

    Hello,
    Can anyone please post the wlan whitelisted bios for Thinkpad l512? Thanks a lot in advance. I tried the links on page 416 and 494, they are all down.

    Sorry to be such a NOOB but I have worked out that the BIOS is independent of the OS 32/64bit.

    However trying to flash with WINPHFLASH on a Lenovo x200 with Windows 8 64bit OS the Winphflash freezes.

    I believe there is a Winphlash64 but how do I get it to work with the MOD BIOS??

    Any help appreciated.

    ok, so modding the bios for B590 will not work with: Phoenix/Dell/EFI SLIC Mod v2.14 . I have to use 'marker tool' instead.
