Success with OEMBIOS changer from 911medic

Thanks for this great tool. It worked successfully for me changing a VLK install on a compaq notebook into an OEM version.

There was one thing that occurred along the way. The OEMBIOS files I downloaded were not compressed so I placed them into the Uncompressed folder and then ran through the steps in the program. At the end it stated that the oembios.cat file could not be found. I looked into the Oembios files folder, where it appears they are copied to during the run and it indeed did not get copied. So, I did the copy myself and reran it. It was then successful.

 

ok i was searching and scanning threads and realized "ummm i might need some help" hahaha im running a dell dimension 3100 with a windows xp pro mce with a vlk key... i believe it was made by orbit... pretty sure i got it from the bay about a year ago... what exactly do i need to do to get this beast from vlk back to oem? im pretty tech savy but this is one thing i havent tried out... any help would be great... thanks in advance!!

 

ahhhh yes that was gonna be my next question! id love to have it and i can for sure wait big thanks and much appreciated in advance... a tool like what you have made and will make for mce is more than handy... its basically essential at least for me... especially after numerous reformats for various reasons

again thanks a lot!! honestly im sick of vlk keys

 

damn medic you are quick on the ball!! i will try this out this weekend and give ya an update as to how it went

thanks again i really appreciate you taking the time to make this

cheers!

 

proplems using OEMBIOSChanger xp pro 32 bit fresh install

OEMBIOS.EXE not suitable for MS-DOS and MIcrosoft Windows Close


first option fails

 

one question before i run this... im assuming i just unrar it and run it correct?? how do i know everything went successfully after the fact? as in permanent activation and such...

 

ya i downloaded the oembioschanger.exe from the first page... i can just check with that??

 

I think you have failed OEMBIOS.exe works fine in msdos and windows cmd window.

 

ahhh yes sorry good sir... i just ran the larger program and found oobe... great comprehensive set of tools in that!! thats for sure gonna be put on the usb stick and used on all computers

still have not tried it out yet but plan to here in about the next hour... i will keep ya posted

thanks again

cheers from canada

adding mce support to that tool would make it the ultimate i think... keep us updared as to when you are gonna add it... stuff like that is great for the emergency usb stick
