Hi Andy, Still there is aproblem with OEMTableID, it has been changed to SLIC-MPC only in the SLIC table but all other tables still having SLIC-CPC, which de-activating the VISTA.
I am new at this, but I just updated a BIOS for ASUS A8N32-SLI and Vista activated. Where or how would I see what this is(OEMTableID)?
Ahhh. Could I ask you to untick 'Only Replace OEM ID in Additional Tables' and try again. Thanks Andy
How do I use this with Biostar .BST BIOS files? I am new to all of this so pardon me if this is stupidly obvious to everyone but myself. I am trying to mod my Biostar TA790GX A2+ Mobo (AMI BIOS) and the bios file is 78DBA525.bst but your program looks for .rom. By default it looks for ROM but I can choose for it to look for ALL FILES. I do so and it finds the BST file and does associate it with Biostar as the manufacturer. I did not proceed further as I wanted to confirm that this was OK before I continued. I did go through this forum and did not see anything, I also searched for .BST and Biostar but came up empty. I am trying to get ready for Win 7 and have been using loaders till now. Thanks for the help and for the great work with this tool!
OK. Cool. Or as said earlier, I can add the ROM extension? Such as adding it- 78DBA525.bst.ROM ? or should I do it CHANGE IT - 78DBA525.ROM? I am guessing change it because the funny extension names like .BST are just what those companies use so their proprietary BIOS update programs know what to look for...but in the end...BIOS is BIOS. Thanks again for the guidance. I am having fun reading these posts and learning how to do this myself.
If it were me..I would just add .rom..it would be..78DBA525.bst.ROM Be done with the mod..remove the .rom and the _SLIC..your done. (You will get a file named 78DBA525_SLIC.bst.ROM or similar. make it 78DBA525.bst when you are done...This is my recomendation..)
OK. I just want to do it the most reliable way to prevent errors. I am a strong believer in Best Practices. lol Now I just have to wait for 7 Certificates and OEM stuff to appear and I will mod my BIOS. Don't want to do it twice since everything is working fine right now under Vista. lol PS - Oh...and thanks to all for helping me.
Yes in the Everest 5.02. Original bios SLIC table is not at all. Modified BIOS it has. Tomorrow connect a report from Everest .. The key is 100 percent correct
