    rename back64bios.bin to BACKSLIC.ROM, copy it to the USB stick and flash your backup-ed bios (run flash1.bat or Flash2.bat)
    After reboot re-make RWE report

    already have the latest. i tried to uninstall and reinstall with no changes

    Thanks

    PS the only time i was able to make a RWE report was on original bios before any mods :(

    EDIT: is there a specific tab on the utility you'd like to see/read? i can open RWE with no problem. its just when i try to create a report i get the error window. i can copy paste tab(s) to txt file if it will help

    boot from any Live CD to WinXP and try again

    (we have a strange situation - fpt's and Universal BIOS Backup ToolKit's backup are 100% identical (first time in my memory that))
