Hi all,
Would like to request some incredibly brave soul to take a stab at a whitelist removal for the HP Elitebook 8440p
It is an RSA encoded bios. I am willing to test, and have bios backup USB ready and the ability to remove a CMOS battery (if that method will work).
I'm pretty sure this is an Insyde BIOS. I've read some things that worry me that this specific laptop/bios might not be doable. I've seen a partial test thread on here somewhere too, but that was a while ago, and I was kind of hoping things might have moved on.
Laptop Model: HP Elitebook 8440p
Bios Name: SP56765
Bios Version: F.21 (28 Mar 2012)
My current bios update is here:
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56501-57000/sp56765.exe
I have hosted a copy on my dropbox, just in case here:

PCI IDs (current card):
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4239&SUBSYS_13118086&REV_35
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4239&SUBSYS_13118086
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4239&CC_028000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4239&CC_0280
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.
So...it's really impossible?

No one succeeded with whitelisting this bios?
Anyone who wan'ts to give it a try, I'll test it
That sounds good.. Let me just check when I get home if it's same BIOS i have.
I just installed the new wifi card and found out, and after some searching here, I almost gave up on finding someone who succeeded with the bios whitelisting for the Elitebook series.
I'll update when I get home from work and removed the new wifi card from the laptop.

hello all,
first of id like to say thank you all in advance for any help provided. i have searched throughout the forum and although there was a few threads for this model, none had provided a verified and stable bios mod that i can see or the overall support just dropped. as this model is now a few years older i was hoping one would be able to try tackling this task again. Im aware this model comes in 3 versions and the one i have is the Intel Graphics - Energy Star Ed. i have flashed to the latest bios they have listed and i would like to have the whitelist removed so i can install a Wireless AC + bluetooth internal card.
