When I use phnxsplit.exe to extract the bios,I have found ACPI05.rom is just the SLIC table.Maybe the laptop can activate Vista.If it can't,I hope you could use acpiscope to make a report and upload it.
The SLIC-Table is nilled by approx. 50% This is a dump made by R/W-Everything: Software Licensing Description Table: 0x7BBFED97 53 4C 49 43 76 01 00 00 01 74 41 43 52 53 59 53SLICv....tACRSYS 41 43 52 50 52 44 43 54 00 00 04 06 41 4E 4E 49ACRPRDCT....ANNI 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 9C 00 00 00 06 02 00 00................ 00 24 00 00 52 53 41 31 00 04 00 00 01 00 01 00.$..RSA1........ 1D A3 8F F3 A1 9D F1 F2 31 B4 B5 17 6C CE 4D 17........1...l.M. 64 6A F9 79 29 50 CE 0A B2 13 70 71 6E 28 AD DBdj.y)P....pqn(.. 55 1C A6 23 3E 0C 8A 4F 02 49 C9 DF 6D AB CB E7U..#>..O.I..m...

As you can see, the important parts are missing. How can we add them? With this Vista cannot be activated by now. Any comments/solutions? Greets Lord Extra Edit: This dump is from my extensa 5230EZ-422G25Nm. It came with Linpus-Linux and Bios-Version 1.29 which isn't provided by Acer Download-Site yet.
Hi, it's me again! I haven't yet flashed the bios of my Extensa 5630EZ until now. But there is one thing I found out until today. I've taken some time to compare the ACPI-parts of a dump from an Acer Extensa 5220 (it came with SLIC already activated in the factory) and an Extensa 5630EZ. The second part of the already activated ACPI-Table is listed here (compare it with the above one): SLIC from an Extensa 5220 dump: Software Licensing Description Table: 0x7F6DCDA5 53 4C 49 43 76 01 00 00 01 AC 41 43 52 53 59 53SLICv.....ACRSYS 41 43 52 50 52 44 43 54 00 00 04 06 41 4E 4E 49ACRPRDCT....ANNI 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 9C 00 00 00 06 02 00 00................ 00 24 00 00 52 53 41 31 00 04 00 00 01 00 01 00.$..RSA1........ 1D A3 8F F3 A1 9D F1 F2 31 B4 B5 17 6C CE 4D 17........1...l.M. 64 6A F9 79 29 50 CE 0A B2 13 70 71 6E 28 AD DBdj.y)P....pqn(.. 55 1C A6 23 3E 0C 8A 4F 02 49 C9 DF 6D AB CB E7U..#>..O.I..m...

CD 35 EC 01 63 18 .5..c. How did you flash the bios of your Extensa 5630EZ exactly? Can you please make a little howto? What's about the infos in the bios according to serial-number, Model-Name etc.? How can you re-edit those values, if the data is being deleated during flash-process? Greets Lord Extra
Hello. sure. So I made a flash: phlash16.exe /x /s /c BIOS.WPH The serial number is right after a flash. Agrees with the number on the laptop.
Hello! @WarriorCZ! I have one question yet: The bios version 1.30, which you linked earlier in this topic, ist an official and untouched bios from an Acer-Dowonload-Server? Ist this correct or has the bios been modified in some way? Until now i have only been able to find the slightly older bios version 1.28. Can you provide a link from the site, which provides the download? The bios on my Extensa 5230EZ ist v1.29, which is quite new, as i think. Never heard from v1.30 before. Greets Lord Extra Edit: The bios-file, which ist in the zip-archive (download from your box-net link), has to be renamed in BIOS.wph? Is this correct? There are two files (*.rom and *.wph). Which one has to be "taken" by the flash program an so has to be renamed for this purpose?
SLIC Modified BIOS is only from the Yen. My version is from the original manufacturer. I asked Yen for an adjustment. Bios v1.30 you can upload, but the activation fails. File .WPH rename to BIOS.WHP
Cool, so the method is confirmed! I'm busy at the moment and have a look at my signature....cannot download from file sharing providers......but I'll try as soon as I can..... Thanks for trying my mod.
