    Thanks Ipmark! I'm willing to give it a try. I already have a "Recovery USB thumb drive" verified and working. I downloaded the sp55375_WL_Patched.rar but have a question. How do I flash the two files in the .rar packacge?

    Thanks in advance...

    Replace the original bin in the sp55375.exe package with the modded one

    But I think this is not enough ...

    What do you think might be missing? What might not be enough? I really appreciate your time and efforts. :worthy:

    The problem is the RSA signed bios.
    When you modify this kind of bios you break the digital signature and the flasher can't rewrite the modded bios correctly
    And I don't know a working method to do it

    Ipmark,

    I replaced the 017FC.bin that you provided me in a package that Camilo over at bios-mods gave me that had a modded flasher with hopes it might flash the BIOS. It seemed like it was going to work but on re-boot it went into BIOS Recovery and re-flashed my stock sp55375 BIOS.

    Oh well, at this point it was worth a try. I had to give it a try, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

    Thanks again...

    HA! Update 3

    Well used the Phoenix Tool 1.95, was able to separate the modules, but couldn't find any part of my currently installed device ID. I would just like to use my new card, so adding the device ID or whitelist removal is great! Anybody have an idea where in the bios file the code might be? I found several filler spots and a couple security but no 'whitelist' type heading.

    Thanks,

    Joe

    Does it apply also to the hp 5320m bios?
    Please answer to me. I have sent several posts asking for help with this.
