PowerEdge 2600 Do you have the .HDR file you used to modify this BIOS available? Would like to try this, but hate to reinvent the wheel for no reason.
Hello to all, This is all new to me, I recently downloaded service pack 1 for windows 7 ultimate 32 bit and it will not accept my key now. I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 that came with Vista and upgraded. I have downloaded RW everything but I can not find the download for Phoenix SLIC file download. Is it still required? How do I proceed from here? Thanks in advance, Tim
There were one or two keys that were blacklisted at some point. Try with a new key RW everything should show the presence of a valid slic Andy
I appreciate your input, and also bow to your superior knowledge and experience. However, I don't really have a choice on this one, as the manufacturer has no repository, let alone updates for this board. On edit: I did originally request a modded BIOS in the appropriate thread, and one of the modder's graciously did one. But, my original backup was done with Universal Backup Toolkit, and it only backed-up a 1mb BIOS (incomplete). AFUDOS created a clean 2mb backup, and I attempted to mod it using your tool, successfully flashed it back to my board, and it still lives. Still no SLIC, though...
LMAO. MS is trying to block the download to try and prevent pirating. Smartscreen filter, what this does is force alot of people to use another browser. Haha, just go to options and turn off smartscreen filter, download file and turn it back on. Just like these antivirus programs that try and delete any keygen, they call it a hacking tool...........LMAO!!!!!
Andy, I think loader (for this I used windows loader by daz, not sure with else) can be used for virtual test when we want to mod bios. There's some related data but I dont know how to explain to all member here since I dont do bios mods, but some referance u need to know : - Loader detect bad slics, mean there's slics with zeroed marker (incomplete marker or pubkey etc), when it used to ignore oem slic / partition, try the loader, reboot, if it succeed, I use RW everything, look what loader change, convert to what we should done with the bios slics tool (ami, award, phoenix) depend what we need. - Loader give BSOD if we used default action (no advance) mean if we use default action too in bios tools, well most definitely bios mods will fail. It's easy to recover with loader, but with bios mods fail, some recovery success, some recovery fail. Well there must be lot of relation, I hope maybe u can check it n maybe just maybe it can help people who want to do their own bios modding.
andyp... ...I don't know what else to say but... YOU ARE THE MAN!!! That last fix successfully inserted SLIC2.1 code, it flashed with no problems whatsoever, and Windows 7 Ultimate is now activated!! Thank you SO VERY MUCH!! I appreciate all your contributions to this hobby, and all your hard work! KUDOS!!
