    Pavillion DV7t and an Intel 6300-N

    Just thought I'd upgrade my wireless card cause the signal sucks and lo and behold I end up lurking on these forums....
    Could someone mod my bios after they tell me exactly how to upload them..? :(

    I can't mod your bios but I can tell you how to post it. Look up the support page for your laptop on hp and copy the download link to the bios version you are using. Put that link with the same format others have used above.

    Manufacturer: (in your case HP)
    Model Number (you can find this on the bottom of your laptop usually near your battery or underneath it) for an hp it should be something like dv7t-xxxx
    BIOS revision: You can find this under version number from the same download link for your bios on the hp support site
    BIOS type: Not sure where you can find this it maybe be noted somewhere in the bios download section on hp

    Current Card: You need to goto device manager in windows right click on your wireless card (in the network adapter section usually will say wireless or wifi) and select properties. Click on Details and click on the description drop down and select hardware id. Copy and paste the longest line.

    Card to be added: For this you will need to boot up your computer to windows and put it into sleep mode. Then you will need to install the new card you want and do the same as above.

    You do not need the card to be added section if you want the whitelist removed entirely. Just make sure to note this in your post.

    I hope I will get some spare time to mod a few of them. To add / replace another card is no problem, to disable the whitelist check I need time to figure. The way the whitelist is programmed is mostly different. This is the reason why it is time consuming.
