I have modded your bios, find it following my signature directions

1st, THANKS for your prompt and fast reply. running your patched installer doesn't work, as i get a msg saying 'BIOS image same as BIOS ROM. An update is not necessary at this time'. (i'm running 1.38 already)

Am i missing something obvious ?

Best Regards,

António.

hmmm it have extracted the content in C:\DRIVERS\FLASH\6nuj22us

Edit Phlash.ini

Code:

[UI] Confirmation=0 SaveEscdMode=1 DetectBitLocker=0 ForceUpdate=0

Try setting ForceUpdate=1 then launch WINUPTP.EXE

[doniphon]

still doesn't work. exact same error. (i'm on Vista 7 Pro 64b)
(did 'PHLASH.INI' mod on the one inside '64bit' subdir).
full contents of it after the mode bellow

Code:

[Main] RetryCount=3 UpdateMode=0 FormatVersion=2 UpdateFlags=20 UserFlags=20 UserMask=d121a4 PSIFlags=1 UserMode=ffffffff BackupFile=FLASHABL.bak ImageFile=FLASHABL.ROM [UI] Confirmation=0 ForceUpdate=1 SaveEscdMode=1 DetectBitLocker=0 ;SaveEscdMode=1 ;SaveUefiVarVolMode=1 ;SaveSetupVarVolMode=1

All the best,

António

Vale, pues ahora modifica el fichero que te he dicho

el que esta en la ruta que te he puesto C:\DRIVERS\FLASH\6nuj22us no el del directorio 64Bit.

still confused, way confused; _that_ location would only maters if i tell installer to unpack in default place. anyway in C:\DRIVERS\FLASH\6nuj22us there is no PHLASH.INI file to modify afaict (that's why above i modded the one in the 64bit subdir.).
fwiw putting what you said to in a newly created C:\DRIVERS\FLASH\6nuj22us\PHLASH.INI still has no effect, as i get exact same error.

Thanks for your patience,

ok, the plot now thickens...

if i open/extract the exe you provided with winar at 1st there is there in fact a PHLASH.INI file. mess is that it looks corrupted... (ends with"LOADDRIVER_DENY=ȨÏÞ²»¹»£¬ÇEÔadministratorÔËÐУ¡" )
so, when i mod it as you say, i get error as before and... it, as well a bunch of other files just vanish.


Hope this helps,

All the best,

Replace this file where you extracted content and run it again.

[doniphon]

replace what exactly. patched installer looks exactly the same as before. there's now there a WINUPTP.rar that i don't know/am sure if was there before. is that one u want me the replace the one in the instaler ?

unpack the modded bios again, then unpack this last RAR over the installer and replace WINUPTP.EXE file, then run it
