    Why you not edit RSDT Table ?

    I can't seem to do it. I tried with WinHex & the Phoenix Bios Editor 2.2.13, but I just see files like Holexx and stuff like that. Search my posts, I was really trying but unsuccessful.

    Your RSDT is BIOSCOD1.ROM Search and Try Edit

    if not work try to change name SLIC to TEST in BIOSCOD1.ROM and add ACPI7.ROM (FULL SLIC2.1 bin) dont forget to add "ACPI ACPI7.ROM -X" in ROM.SCR

    I found SLIC three times in that file. I must change each instance to TEST?
    I have HPQOEMSLIC-MPC.BIN w/ SLIC2.1 is that what you're talking about, too?

    Does HPQOEMSLIC-MPC.BIN need to be renamed to ACPI7.ROM and placed in the temp folder for the bios build?
    Add "ACPI ACPI7.ROM -X" in ROM.SCR ?? Yes, I see the file ROM.SCR have no idea how to add that in there?

    This is where I become lost ...

    "if not work try to change name SLIC to TEST in BIOSCOD1.ROM and add ACPI7.ROM (FULL SLIC2.1 bin) dont forget to add "ACPI ACPI7.ROM -X" in ROM.SCR"

    1.You just open the BIOSCOD01.ROM with winhex.
    2.Search "RSDT" , you should found it.
    3.Replace "HP 30BD " with "HPQOEMSLIC-MPC" , save it. ( You may found howto replace it on my post.)
    4.Rebuild your bios with PBE.
    5.Enjoy your modded bios.

    PS. I presume 30BD because, SLIC-Dump said your RSDT is "HP 30BD ", so you should replace the last RSDT in your BIOSCOD01.ROM.

    Yes, I found 30BD all over in my bios using every tool.
    .. and what about add "ACPI ACPI7.ROM -X" in ROM.SCR"

    You may edit BIOSCOD01.ROM in your modded bios without adding any file.

    Just edit your slic2.1 modded bios to change RSDT table value.
    As you can see that SLIC-Dump said your bios already has SLIC2.1.
    It's just have a wrong RSDT.
    So, you need not adding any file to your modded bios,just edit RSDT in BIOSCOD01.ROM, and you will finish your work.

    I found RSDT three times in BIOSCOD1.ROM. Do I just highlight the 4 letters and choose edit clipboard data paste, with HPQOEMSLIC-MPC in the clipboard?
    Ok, I do all this on the bios that was already hex'd.

    I have to start over, I took a machete to the bios :eek:

    I think you should choose the last one to match your mainboard.
    As SLIC-Dump said it is 30BD, right?

    Ok, I'm back online, but nothing has changed and I have the same damn table error.
    The bios was loading, but it was pretty fast, then shut the computer down.

    Maybe I should try to change how I install it.
    I used: phlash16.exe BIOS.WPH /CS /O /Force /X /C /S

    I recommend you use the #1 , because mr.kidding edit RSDT from your old file, and yes your old bios already 2.1.

    As I said , you just need to edit RSDT.
