2Andyp: is it possible to use yours *tools preservation mechanisms to manually edit/substitute separate modules of *.ROM? E.g. Option ROM updates or else along with DSDT manual edit? Also answer please my prev. Q on prev. page.
Only RSDT and XSDT OEM and Table ID have to match SLIC. ACPI specs dictate that ALL OEM IDs should match - although it has never been a problem. It does help compressibility though.... Andy
Thanks. And what about this? Just nearby here thread about Option ROM updating - it still dangerous to use mmtool or else and your preservation would be handy in this. So it's possible?
Never. The version of Windows I was using is VLP and didn't need to be activated, therefore I never needed a softmod/loader; it's odd. I do have multiple partitions and multiple disks however. Great work on the AMI Tool, you used MASM for it? I'm an x86 assembly programmer myself, although writing in C takes less time.
Thanks. VB.NET all the way. Used to program in x86 ASM when I was younger (I am not in IT industry at all); hence I can read some stuff but haven't written a proper x86 program for years! Andy
Hi guys, im having problems modding my ASUS P5QL/EPU. I self modded my P5Q PRO TURBO fine on default settings, but this one is alot more difficult. My Asus P5Q PRO TURBO has the following ACPI table: Please select the 'Courier' font format to read !

Ive never flashed a Dell SLIC to it, ive been using the Asus_Notebook 2.1 SLIC. Im thinking I need to use one of the shrinking or editing options to have the dell strings overwritten. Do you guys have any ideas? Sorry for the long post too. :3
I did use a pre-activated windows 7, but I used Hazzans toolkit to remove and repair activation. I have not used a loader. Ill try VOATK now.
try using: Put a Retail or OEM (Untouched) Window 7 Disk in the DVD Drive. Start ... Run ... sfc /scannow That should replace any missing files with the originals.
Well to tell the truth im actually remote connected to this computer, so putting the disk in my drive wont do anything. Is there a way to extract slmgr.vbs from the disk or do I need more than slmgr? Ill see what I can do about dumping a .iso and mounting it.
You need to make your own thread. This really has Nothing to do with andyps tools. PS There is NO such thing as Hazzans Toolkit. Maybe you mean the Windows 7 toolkit 1.8 by Orbit30 (which means you need to repair your installation or re-install a Clean version), or maybe 7Loader 1.6 by Hazar ?????
Yeah, Hazar's. Sorry about the off topicness, I was just answering your questions. Im still concerned about the ACPI tables saying dell instead of asus.
