hello there,
i am new here and i must say i have learnd a thing or two Wink
so now i am trying to unlock my hp pavillion and there is something i don't understand: everest tells me the bios type is award but the manufacturer is phoenix. It also says that the award bios type is: phoenix -awardbios v6.00PG

so wich is it????
thanx in advance
Its award. Phoenix is the company who make award bioses. Phoenix bioses are also made by Phoenix but are different. Its very Confusing! Tongue

thanks for clearing this up for me.
Its what were here for Big Grin
seems this is a common bios version, yet it differs by manufacturer. I had an e-machine with the same bios, and as well, a compaq/hp, yet they were totall different bios in appearance, and function...
@jakewhite1975: did you manage to unlock it yet? and what version did you use to get it unlocked? thnx
