    Hello,

    Is there any way for a layman like me to verify that a modified BIOS contains nothing malicious? Maybe a file comparison with the official BIOS that shows in plain text what is changed?

    If it was done here, It will have only SLIC and SLP string. No additional code not needed for the desired mod. We had one modder changing strings to less than desireable words, but that is not necessarily malicious. Just a PITA.

    I think this is not a problem to worry about. You will not have a problem here.
