    Can anyone tell me what do for this error:
    Dell BIOS
    Failed to extract HDR file.
    (For old Dell BIOSes ensure you have set the memory sizes to 640/16384/16384 in File Right click -> Properties)

    Trying to use mod tool on DMC521-010111.EXE for Dimension C521

    I am trying to mod the BIOS/UEFI for a Foxconn Nettop nt-A3550. Version 2.09 without the RWEverything report, it creates a modified file that doesn't actually insert the SLIC correctly. Fortunately it didn't brick the machine. If I try to use an RWEverything report, it fails with the error "Error 9 - The index was outside the bounds of the array." I have tried to mod BIOS versions B11F1P08 and B11F1P09. I've attached the SLIC log of the failed attempt with the RWEverything report. I'm not really sure what to try next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
