    I just received my brand new Asrock e350m1 that has an UEFI bios. Should this tool work with this mobo?
    Thank you

    Just tried V1.76 on P8P67 Pro using 1253 used previously. Flashed ok but on booting into windows BSOD. Maybe down to earlier reported SLI issues as I run 2 x 260GTX. Tried twice then reflashed with unaltered 1253 now booting without problems

    Flashed PowerEdge 2600 this evening with SLIC v2.1 using PhoenixTool v1.77 as follows:

    1. Extracted .HDR file from BIOS A14 (DIS-A14C.exe -writehdrfile)
    2. Patched with PhoenixTool - Warning: "Some elements may not have been patched. Continue?" - couldn't see anything that would prove fatal.
    3. Flashed using Dell BIOSFLSH.EXE using force option (original A14 already installed - Yes I do follow instructions!)
    4. REBOOT.EXE ... Flash ... Done.

    Installed Windows Server 2008 Standard SP2 using standard dell build utililty, certificate, key, done.

    So a *huge* thanks to andyp and all the contributors to this tool worked great :hug2:

    Did you tick allow user to modify other modules then replace when prompted??

    If you did, then please post link and the modded module you are trying to insert

    Thanks

    Andy thanks a lot mate i followwed your procedure and i have succesfully intergrated my logo00.bin and logo01.bin. But now another question just in case you can help me!! It's a phoenix bios which is not supported from phoenix bios editor (unknown module Y and etc etc....) so i just open the original bios with phoenix bios editor -> change bootscreen -> build it -> open with your tool the modified one -> backup logo00.bin and logo01.bin from dump file-> open with your tool the unmodified one -> intergate modified logo00.bin and logo01.bin... This is the only procedure with can be done because if you flash the modified build bios from phoenix bios editor then you get stuck at boot screen!!! But here comes my question i flash the result from the whole procedure but i get the same boot screen but from phoenix bios editor i can see that i have altered it!!! My mind goes to ph161700, maybe someparamater which erase and flash all the bios and not some particular blocks???

    Re: Asrock e350m1

    Might be. Bios seems to be EFI/Insyde, as far as I know. Pls post RW-E-Report.
    I'm planning to buy one for test purpose, but around my place there is none available yet.

    Greetings
