    Hi China4Ever,

    It seems that Dell and Lenovo bios fail when you try to activate Vista.:(

    And just a few thing :
    adding the line bios440.filename = "VMWAREBIOS_SLIC.ROM", will cause Vmware fail to boot because it don't find the good path of the bios.

    It will be more that :

    Add this line using notepad at the beginning to call modified bios:

    bios440.filename = "C:\mybios.rom"

    Eventually change the path to where you have copied mybios.rom



    Could you edit your post ?

    Thanks, :)

    Hanoui.

    If you don't add path to the value VMWare will be looking in virtual machine home folder. You can simply place the custom bios there.

    I have cracked BIOS from VirtualPC (tnx to Yen for his static v3 tut).
    I used ACER slic but i have a little trouble...ACER slic don't works with VISTA BUSINESSN (i have mistake the vista install!). I don't have much time to create a new virtual install. Is there someone that have a working serial to install and activate a BUSINESSN using ACER SLIC??
    Soon i'll put virtualPC exe cracked here ;)

    Thanks a bunch reginakampher. :) Do you have a howto for the vmware BIOS or even better Hyper-V if it is even possable?

    On a side note, how did you go about translating "Award Super Static Method Editing Tools" app?

    Oh, and the "Yihuajiemu" seems to have once been a website as far as I can tell.

    This is how I translated it.
    • Open awardslic.exe with XN resource editor. Click on "RC Data" then "TFORM1" then "Language Neutral" on the left hand pane.
    • On the right hand pane, it should look something like this:
      Code:
      object Form1: TForm1
        Left = 252
        Top = 115
        BorderIcons = [biSystemMenu, biMinimize]
        BorderStyle = bsSingle
        Caption = 'Award'#36229#32423#38745#24577#27861#20462#25913#24037#20855
        ClientHeight = 564
        ClientWidth = 527
        Color = clBtnFace
        Font.Charset = GB2312_CHARSET
        Font.Color = clWindowText
        Font.Height = -12
        Font.Name = #23435#20307
      
    • I copied the items highlighted in red and pasted it into Google translate.
    • I then inserted "&" before each instance of the "#" character so that it looked like this
      Code:
      &# 36229&# 32423&# 38745&# 24577&# 27861&# 20462&# 25913&# 24037&# 20855
      (Remove the spaces. I had to put the spaces in there as vBulletin
      converts them to Chinese characters) 
      
    • Choose Chinese to English and click translate.
    • Scroll down and repeat this procedure to the other similar items and that's it.

    Sweet, thanks for all the info, thats looks way easer then decompiling.

    And the yes Hyper-V is only part of the x64 version of server 2k8 std, ent and data center.

    Let me know if I can help you at all. :)
