    Basic compaq desktop D530

    Fact; compaq / hp bios. When I open the ROM.CAB the come with HPQFLash it shows a RSDX... line in the table.-- see below.
    If i extract the rom file with 7zip it shows a ROM.BIN 512kb file and a 1K ROM.SIG file
    The bin file if open with editor shows the same information as the rom file.

    Now for the dos flash -(which I will attempt to use also if I am unable to get the file compress back as a rom.cab file).- has a BLUEFI20.22B file which if I open with editor shows the same information.... None has any SLIC table.

    My Questions;
    Can some one insert the SLIC table into the any of thes three files for me or point me out where to insert it?

    I was attempting to follow this link with the RSDT insertion... even though mine as a rsdx line.
    ww.mydigitallife.net/2007/02/18/improved-way-to-add-slic-slp-20-table-into-bios-acpi-to-activate-windows-vista-oem


    Here is where I am.
    The information is available once I have executed hpqflash as per in this thread. However I am unable "There is 4 or more blank (00 HEX value) in front of RSDT. In this case, move the whole string of RSDTFACPDSDT forward 4 position (left FACS intact unmoved). After moving, add in SLIC at the blank space leftover by moved string (should be right after moved string). Note down and remember the starting position of ACPI index string in HEX, i.e. D0DC in this case."

    Guidance please.
    Move

    None of the business notebooks 6x1xb that use rompaq are modded & I do not expect they ever will

    Sorry to bother this thread but WHERE can I request a bios mod for my HP Compaq NC8430? I'm not after Windows 7 by the way, I would just like to modify the video bios to always start at the powersaving state in order to keep the laptop cooler using linux, live CDs, Freedos or such.
