    Hi, i am looking for an asus tool called bt2.exe. All i can find on the web is the older Version of the tool bt.exe, but it seems that this one is too old for my Notebook as i get "no support extf function" error when trying to use it.

    I am trying to get my keyboard backlight back to life in my asus ROG g752vsk after a RMA. There are several posts on the web if you want to Look up what needs to bei done , but here is a short description:

    I need to edit cnfg page of eeprom/nvram and change the DD block fromm FF to 7C with the command: bt2.exe -c cnfg /w DD 7C

    With the older Version of bt i get the error mentioned above so i need the never version bt2, or any other tool that is able to edit that cnfg page.

    Rewriting my bios dump with mmtool and a hex Editor and reflashing with afudos did Flash succesfully, but the changes did reset back to FF after flashing so this does not work unfortunatly.

    Appreciate any help or a link/message with the needed tool :) thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    I am trying to write a BIOS with a changed ROM-ID to a X11 Supermicro motherboard. New BIOS versions only likes AFUWIN AFUEFI etc over version 5.09 with that board.
    Unfortunately /X Switch does not bypass the ROM-ID check and it gives ROM-ID mismatch when you try to write it.

    I do not have a AFU version that is equal or later than 5.09 that I can use /GAN switch. Does anybody have a version that is 5.09 or later that I can use /GAN switch or do you know if the switch is changed ?

    Thank you

    Unfortunately it could not read the firmware file. Regular public AFUWINX64, AFUEFI over 5.09 works but those will not accept /GAN
    Thank you for the link though. If anybody has a solution or information I appreciate it.

    Thanks

    Is there some universal BIOS tool that can read, write and erase Windows CD-Keys?
    I ask because I purchased a laptop with Windows 8 pre-installed and I have forgotten the CD-Key.

    EDIT: I forgot to ask about Intel AMT/ME. I have heard of people either disabling it or removing it entirely without any problems.

    There's Windows Command Prompt or PowerShell can get the product key embedded in the motherboard.

    Command Prompt
    Code:
    wmic path softwarelicensingservice get OA3xOriginalProductKey
    PowerShell
    Code:
    powershell "(Get-WmiObject -query ‘select * from SoftwareLicensingService’).OA3xOriginalProductKey"
    For write and erase the product key, the tools used to do that is depends on the type of the BIOS and manufacturer. Each manufacturer have different tool to achieve this one.

    nvm.

    Is there an eeprom.exe EFI version somewhere?
    We really should gather all EFI programs to one new package.
