Medic911, per your instructions I went looking for the dmi tools with 3 tools in it. It took most of the day, and I'd thought I'd finally found it. I downloaded the image and burned it to disc. The program prompts for HP only, which confused me. So I did nothing yet. I'm trying very hard not to screw this up; I don't want to create a huge paperweight. You suggested eMachines for the string and activate as Gateway. Should I use the HP as it suggests? I finally figured out how to use the CrystalDmi reporting program. I don't know for sure what I'm looking at. I haven't tried dmicfg.exe yet either. That, I guess should be next. I do note that Gateway is reported under system info and baseboard, and also enclosure. As to Phlash, no I haven't tried it yet. As I mentioned before, I've taken it to heart that this process is not for the faint of heart. Frankly, I fear Murphy's Law. Thanks for all your help so far, and I apologize for my ignorance. I have been reading and absorbing what I can, but just as I think I'm starting to get it, I realize I'm more confused than when I started. Did I get the right image? I do appreciate how much you all have worked to figure this all out, but the information I have managed to pull use from has been spread across literally thousands of posts. I begin to feel like I'm in a room with dozens of people all speaking at once, and that makes it hard to focus. Thanks again. You deserve a great deal of credit for your knowledge, help and patience with the likes of me.
could you post a rweverything report and a dump from the everest..It appears the code is being overwritten..maybe a SSv3 is possible. maybe a dump with HWdirect is in the future.. The SSv1 I made is similar to the 0+2 mod..I would assume that is the SSv1 and OEM7 fails, the others will also. A dump will be helpful.
and how do I do that? do I have to have the factory bios loaded? however, still don't know how to generate the dump with Everest. please explain - noob here
Hi all, I posted a request earlier #2700 . Used 911medic's oembioschanger with xfiles version whs and it has activated. Reading the readme file I thought you needed crc=C20D8FF5 cat file( WHS activation requires OEMBIOS files from DELL, Hewlett-Packard, or IBM CRC32 Values of: Dell= C20D8FF5 IBM = F35DA4D2 Hewlett-Packard= D107C3EA), but activated with crc=B6F0EEFD. Thanks 911medic
Hello, looking for the SLP 1.0 for my motherboard (K8T-Neo2-F V2.0), since this install the Windows XP PC and I would turn it this way, changing the BIOS by putting the SLP 1.0. Is not it true?. Thanksssss!
