Ladies and gentlemen, perhaps I found the problem: enter COMS, find the "Usb Device Detection Delay (Sec)" change 3 seconds.every time I now find,
HP Elitebook 8530 -VGA!!!- whitelist! Anyone can do it?!? Hi all, guys! I'm new here... I've a particular request for you (sorry for my english, I'm from Italy!). I work as a system administrator / informatic technician in an IT technical assistance company, so please don't treat me as a beginner! I tryied myself to bypass the BIOS whitelist for my notebook in many ways but unsuccessful, so I need your support. I have an HP Elitebook 8530p, with the ATI Mobility HD 3650 that is an MXM type II VGA card. When I bought the notebook I knew of the HP whitelist limitations, but the notebook was so perfect for my needs that I bought it anyway. Now I would try to update my VGA card. First I bought a compatible Nvidia Quadro FX 770M that is in the list of accepted VGA cards; card installed and working! But was not enough for me... recently I've had the possibility to install an ATI Radeon HD 4670 and an Nvidia Geforce 9600M GT. With the 9600M GT installed the notebook doesn't boot, blank screen (ant this was predictable!). But surprise, with the Mobility 4670 it boots and run Windows, I've also installed drivers and everything is ok... except for the fact that the notebook randomly shuts down (and this is not for a temperature problem, is not hot!). I think this problem is due to whitelist limitation, it could shutdown randomly from 30 secs from the boot to max a 10 minutes of the notebook powered on... shutdown during 3DMark or only leaving the notebook powered on... no matter, it shutsdown always within 10 minutes from the boot and randomly. So I need a whitelist patch, but this time is to remove the VGA whitelist, not for the WLAN card... any ideas?!? Thank you! --- sk0rpi0n -->
@TTAV134 I just tried to install the BIOS with whitelist removed, but as you said it removes only network controllers whitelist (PCI CLASS 2, right?)... so the problem with the VGA cards remains. No errors in the windows event viewer, it's surely a BIOS compatibility problem cause it shuts down even with Ubuntu loaded! The strange thing is that the Mobility 4670 is NOT in the compatible cards list of HP, so this card SHOULD give the same problem of the 9600M GT... instead the notebook start and boot, and randomly it "dies" within 10 minutes from the boot... no error messages, it shuts down immediately and stop, no restart or other messages / blinking leds... 3DMark 2005 runs fine until it "dies"... very very strange!
在这之前我把LC5730升级到最新固件，但是问题一样存在。刚才我反复还原COMS，用默认的设置就只能第一次找到WWAN卡，重启之后就找不到，设置"Usb Device Detection Delay (Sec)" 为3秒或更大数字每次就都可以找到WWAN卡，我试着设置成1和2秒，不稳定出现默认设置的情况有时找得到有时找不到，问题真正找到了！我反复测试了20次，已经确定了。 Before I upgrade to the latest firmware LC5730, but the same problem exists. I have repeatedly restore the COMS, with the default settings for the first time only to find WWAN card not found after reboot, set the "Usb Device Detection Delay (Sec)" for 3 seconds or greater numbers can be found each time WWAN Card, I tried to set 1 and 2 seconds, unstable situation there is sometimes the default settings sometimes can not find the find the problem really found it! I have repeatedly tested 20 times, have been identified.
You'll need to get the vbios for the MXM module you are using AND figure a way of grafting it into the system bios. If the bios can be editted in ez2h2o then perhaps the vbios component can be overwritten using hxd's memory editing feature and saved back to a bios image? Not sure, TTAV134 is an expert at modifying the newer Elitebook bios. I know too the HDX9000 folks would love the ability to mod in a FX3700M or GTX260M/GTX280M vbios into their system Inventec systembios. Fingers crossed, semi (author of ADDCCV3) or Veit (author of compdeco) will make a compressor for *at least* a single module so that the compressed vbios can be pasted over the existing compressed vbios module. @TTAV134 - I hadn't tried the bios-set 3sec USB detection delay with the MC8781 that failed and don't have it at hand to try again. Hopeful to get some other WWAN modules to test.
Can start by finding the right VBIOS for the MXM module you intend to use. Place to look is other system's bios who use that MXM module. Use a tool like PhoenixTool to decompress the system bios into modules, one of which will be the vbios.
Hi, the ATI Mobility HD 4670 came from the MSI GX623 notebook of my sister. As far as I know MSI don't use the whitelist system, in fact on the MSI I can install every MXM II card I want (tried!). So do you think that in the MSI's BIOS I will find a module which contains the VBIOS? Can I extract the VBIOS directly from the Mobility 4670 actually installed on my HP Elitebook 8530? Or as you said it's a module that is necessarily in the BIOS of the original machine (MSI)? Can I use PhoenixTool to try to extract VBIOS modules from my HP 8530, at least to see how these modules works? I'm an absolute beginner at this point! Sorry for the stupid questions, I didn't understand how this VBIOS / Modules works!
Can I extract the MSI's BIOS modules directly from the BIOS update file downloaded from the MSI website or must I extract these modules from the started notebook (MSI)?

Hi, what's the best tool to edit my HP Elitebook 8530p notebook's BIOS? I think it has Insyde bios... or can I try with the Phoenix BIOS Editor? If then, where I can download the last version? Thank you!
