    kumeipark, I noticed that in the RW report too. I'm certainly no expert when it comes to BIOS mods (or even just requesting one), so it's more than possible I made a mistake somewhere. My guess for what went wrong is this...

    I was using BIOS version 3.09 when I generated the RW report. I don't want to downgrade just to check this, but maybe the OEM Table ID is "TP-7U" in 3.09. If the OEM Table ID had changed from "TP-7U" in 3.09 to "TP-7W" in 3.12, that could explain the mixup. Maybe I was supposed to install the BIOS version I wanted before generating the RW report.... ?

    One more thing... In the PHLASH.INI file, what are the UpdateFlags? Is there some documentation on how they affect the flash?

    Hi guys, first time here! Sorry but I couldn´t find my answer using search.
    I have a Lenovo G550 and I need to alter the Serial Number. This is because I replaced my Motherboard and I need to put the old number on it for invetory purposes. I´m no longer under warranty.
    Is there a way to change this using any bios tool like discussed here?
    Any direction will be very appreciated. Thanks in advance!
