You are trying to extrcat Bios form an exe ?
You have to run that exe then It will be write into a HD C:\ folder
(do not execute installation) just extract from exe file into
C:\DRIVERS\FLASH\8quj12us\
Then get this file $0A8R000.FL1 from 8RET54WW folder and open It

When I extract the exe files, I only see few files. See attached image. Maybe I am doing something wrong.


Anyway, after I downloaded the modded bios , I ran FLASH.BAT as admin. Cmd prompt opened and closed quickly. I changed the wifi card and saw the error Invalid network card detected. May be I am doing something wrong. Please advise.

a CLI window C:\ with cursor blinking then run FLASH.BAT !

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I ran PMT tool and got Pubkey(x1).

Now to mod the bios should I copy your folder into c:\DRIVERS\FLASH\8quj12us folder and run FLASH.bat as ADMIN (from cmd).
Then continue with the install from exe, which was paused for extracting the files before.

Is that right?

Thanks for your help.
