    hi,

    SLP enabled have nothing to see with your error message.

    Are you sure you'r using the right bios package, where does it come from?
    Give us bios links, and print screen of HPQFlash showing bios versions and error message.

    @TTAV134:

    thanks to your instruction, i have managed to mod the bios of my TC4400 :)
    i did it manually with hxd and not by using your already modded bios due to the error i reportet earlier and everything worked just fine
    thanks agian!





    if you don't have it and you can't even manage to follow a step by step guide, wait 2 months and buy win7 like all the others without the necessary knowledge do and stop spamming in this thread - the guys here are doing an impressive work and you annoy them because you can't even read the title of this thread

    You have to remove all loader and then update bios if you still got that message
    It mean you update wrong bios.bin file.

    Hp nw8240

    Has anybody tried to mod a NW8240 - 68DTV ROM family. I can't find a match in one that has already been done. I have patched my NW9440 and that is working great! Thanks!!

    Nope. Even if you insert it somewhere, you have to alter the RSDT/XSDT tables to point to it..Not possible AFAIK...

    I've been away so have missed keeping up with this thread. I take it no SLIC 2.1 for an HP 8710w?

    HP. My HP laptop bios is based off of Phoenix Technologies though, and the only ones I can find with SLIC 2.1 on the HP site are by Insyde.

    I have a brand new G60-458DX which has the Insyde bios. The latest release is dated Aug 18, 2009 but RW Everything still shows SLIC 2.0. Is RW report correct or is HP abandoning Windows 7 on G60? It's puzzling that they would release a new bios and not bother with updating the SLIC version.

    hi,

    I've tried all the tools from your prevous link (except HDD DMI tool), hpbi103 is the best one for my 6910p. I've put my bios chip on a socket under the keyboard, so i can try hazardous changes in bios with minimum risks.
    My knowledge of DMI protocol is not sufficient to hack SMBIOS table or other part of eeprom and find the protection flag if it exist.
