Requesting with much appreciation for a whitelist removal on the following:

Lenovo S10-3 (Model 0647)
BIOS (2ACN37WW | 2010-10-20):
http://download.lenovo.com/UserFiles/Dri...CN37WW.exe

Current WiFi: Atheros AR9285 (VEN_168C&DEV_002B&SUBSYS_30A117AA)

I think camiloml created one previously but then removed it from the S10-3s thread http://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-Re...3#pid42893

Worked! Tried a Dell DW1506 WiFi Card and boots right into Windows. Thank you sovem!

For anyone who will update their BIOS, during the installation process it will note that this bios "build is for Lenovo M13 only" machines, but running the original BIOS file from Lenovo it also warns the same message so don't be alarmed - in fact, if you google this you'll find many people were also concerned but it seems the same laptop was marketed as M13 outside the US. Sovem's modified BIOS file worked fine however, and I now have the latest BIOS version and without the WiFi whitelist checking.
