    Can someone tell me what exactly i have to do for my lenovo edge e325?
    I downloaded the tools from the first post. The readme for the Tool says that i need to download the official bios. I have but there is nothing like a .rom inside. The Pflash file is not running with 64bit :(
    I'm running Win7 Ult x64.

    Thx for your help.

    Is there any way to upadate SLIC marker for laptop HP ProBook 4530s originally shipped with SUSE Linux.

    Tried HPBC259.exe (MD5:8862886a9b8969ddad89c817571e4d89) as it posted in thread "Forum - Computing Life - BIOS Mods - BIOS Mod Requests. Post Requests Only - Insyde bios mod requests. - #2049"
    Got an error - Platform is not supported.

    Tried hpset14a.exe (64377 bytes, MD5:999e0ede17ec0901e3a364626bd63fb5) :
    Tried hpset14d.exe (68485 bytes, MD5:b1679adb22aa8a2415c3ac9ff1b0a85f) - pressed 'S' ('S' To Save Current System Information) - data saved - "Successfully saved model and serial number information"), but I cant find EEPROM.dat file. Instead of that i got 8 hidden files^
    Tried HPSET14E.EXE (68 923 bytes, MD5: 18e743cbcc6ca49e0c54300c9bd6cd43) - the same story - 8 hidden files^
    Is there any way to update BIOS ?

    if you want you can try use EFI version of DMI utility from archive 1.4D.
    utility is lockated in to the inserted Brand11.zip

    you should extract it to the flash drive and run according to the below manual

    As usual you have to change SKU if it is visilbele in the menu.

    I don't have such notebook to check myself.

    ! your feedback whould be highly appreciated!

    I'm trying to simply delete the asset tag on a Vostro 230 system.

    The older asset.com utility (from Dell support file Z8314R14.EXE) does not recognize the system.
    The FASSET.EXE utility (from Vostro Resource CD CSD\TOOLS\BIOS\FASSET.EXE) reads the service and asset tags and thinks it changed the asset tag but it's still PASS:12/34 after reboot.
    PlatTags.exe says it's for laptops and does not recognize the system.
    Dell CCTK (Client Configuration ToolKit) reads service & asset tags, but can not change Vostro asset tags.

    Anybody successfully change an asset tag on a Vostro 200/230/260/430/460 system?
    What utility did you use?

    DellBIOSReset or DSTCD disks with SVCTAG (A28 or A12) all report that system is not supported.
    PlatTags also fails.
    The closest is FASSET, but the change is ignored after boot. I assume that the real data is copied to the 'old' location for compatibility purposes and the FASSET utility only changes the old location. The data then is overwritten on the next boot.
    So what utility works with Vostro to set Asset tags?

    From a USB DOS Boot:

    A:\>SMMFGCFG
    Dell Notebook Manufacturing Configuration Utility Based on SMBIOS: Verrsion 4.6
    DELL INTERNAL USE ONLY
    WARNING: There is no type DA SMBIOS table!
    WARNING: There is no type D4 SMBIOS table!
    Allocate device table error.

    A:\>PlatTags.exe RPT
    PlatTags.exe -- Version 3.004 (C) Copyright 1993-2009 Dell Inc.
    ERROR: Problem in communicating with the BIOS (Status=1)

    A:\>FASSET
    FASSET -- Version 1.0.4.0 Copyright (C) 2007 Foxconn LTD.
    Service Tag => CORRECT
    Asset Tag => PASS:12/34

    If I use FASSET NEWTAG it will then show Asset Tag => NEWTAG (or FASSET /d will erase it) but it reappears on reboot.

    I've tried to use HP DMI SLP v.1.4D , but no succes. ( some error 0x86), than tried other 2 ways proposed in this thread, but also, didn't work.

    I am using HP Pavilion G6 - 1205EQ, just bought it and for a couple of days I'm trying to activate win7, but those two appls doesn't show the SLIC version and for that I tried to enable it, but didnt't work. Is someone who manage to enable it for HP Pavilion G6 laptops?

    I should mentioned that I have Insyde Bios, updated recently to last version.

    Thank you in advance.
