    I was just wondering what may be happening when I try to flash my Pavilion ze4933 with the bios mod for the HP Compaq nx9030. They have the same motherboard and the same bios. Somewhere in my notes I wrote that I should use the /force switch but I haven't tried that yet. I'm using ph161700.exe to flash from a dos prompt. I booted with my Ghost cd to dos, change to the usb device and run the command. It goes through the process of flashing, almost gets to the end and shuts down. It doesn't insert the slic. I've seen others are having good luck flashing their bios on older systems so I'm wondering why this thing won't do it. Can someone give me any idea please? Thanks in advance.

    if you are so sure that the motherboard for the two system are the same, go ahead and flash it, but this time include /force switch.
