Gateway P-7811fx slic 2.1 request

[SeanFL]

Have a Gateway P-7811FX. Request for anyone to repost a slic 2.1 modded bios. There were links from a couple years ago but all are dead now.

If the file isn't handy, ideally I'd like to use a dell win 7 disc to install. The machine currently has windows 7 32 bit. (original message said 64, but I had problems flashing a 64 bit bios from 64 bit windows from some reasons...so have moved to 32 bit to get it done).

The original bios is available here:
http://support.gateway.com/support/drivers/search.asp?st=browse&platform=10022&model=12115&os=&type=

Thanks very much if anyone has the older slic 2.1 file or can modify this one.

Please, post RWE report.

Here are the tables. Prior to running the RWE, I updated to the recent bios linked above using 32 bit windows (I couldn't get the 64 bit to flash). Thank you.

[SeanFL]

Did I export and zip the tables correctly? Thanks in advance if anyone is able to help get this gateway bios slic 2.1 ready.

thanks Sovem. Gives me "Phoenix phlash16 error. Invalid flashint.bin. press any key to exit."

I used a Hiren boot cd to boot into dos, then ran the bat file you gave on a usb stick. If I'm going about it wrong, thanks for any guidance.
