    AFAIK, it is used to enable the SLIC controller which is by default hidden by MSI. @Serg008 and others have found a way to manually dumping the NVRAM variables, modify it and flash it back so that a full mod isn't necessary if you fill up the marker in romholes.

    OK, I'm at a loss here...I used the tool to insert SLIC 2.1 into an Optiplex 755 A22 BIOS. I followed the README, and I don't know where to go from here. The tool didn't create an executable, but there are bios.gz, 02_3.ROM, 02_3_SLIC.ROM, O755-A22.hdr, and O755-A22_SLIC.hdr files. The tool says a O755-A22_SLIC.exe is there, but it's not in the file window, only the original EXE.
    I tried O755-A22.EXE -readgzfile bios.gz from the CLI, but I got an "Invalid Command Line" window.

    So, where do I go from here? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi all,

    I'm new to the forum. I have one question.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L675-119.
    I've downloaded the BIOS from Toshiba website.
    Extracted files are:
    • bios.ROM
    • BiosCheck.ini
    • ec.rom
    • Setup.exe
    When I load the bios.ROM file on Andy's Tool I receive the following message:


    After extracting I get the following information:


    I don't know what to name the .ROM file.
    Where can I find that bit of information?

    Thanks in advance :)

    the file i used is called P11-B1.CAP, and recently i flashed the bios with a file from "intel iamt" folder, which made acer logo disappear, and also it said "intel" instead, it looked alot different too, like alot of options and so on.

    so, i tried to change back to the old bios, but it didnt work..

    I'm trying to install the following video card:

    There is a lot of info on this site and I'm a bit lost in it all.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction for the tools I need to do this MOD?

    According to CPU-Z, I have the following:

    Chipset Intel X58 Rev 22
