![]() ![]() The older BIOS was pretty much permanent unless the manufacturer released some patched. Unfortunately we cannot simulate an EFI.In the older days, all the motherboards came with a BIOS chip that held a small set of instructions to initiate the hardware interface before the operating system took over. This analysis does nothing say about if the mod works or not. ROM #1 has a lot of differences at modules which are not SLIC modding related at all. No other module is affected concerning SLP1.0.ġ.91 does not mod without rwe report (out of the box).ġ.95 does mod without rwe report and patches the ALASKAAMI OEM/Table ID no matter with or without report. When a SLP file is loaded both tools parses module A062CF18473-4AA3-8793-600BC4FFE9A8_1_134.ROM for SLP 1.0 and add there the string. With the report it changes it as well.īoth tools also notice that no SLIC is found at the ACPI namespace, even though a A M I OEMSLIC is located at the EFI.īy choosing manufacturer: Asus, the tool uses code patches which unlock the SLIC by patching code that prevents it to map. Version 1.95 detects the ALASKAAMI OEM/Table ID and changes it to _ASUS_Notebook (even without rwe-report). This is actually a dummy SLIC since there is no certificate available. What is essential in order to activate windows? The OEM and OEMTableIDs of the SLIC, RSDT and if present XSDT must be the same (have to match). V1.93: ADD: ALASKAAMI OEM/Table ID now always changed even if no RW report Means: Tool 1.91 does not mod without it. V1.92 FIX: RW report optional for EFI mods The SLIC version and its OEM and OEMTableIDs, its presence at ACPI namespace and its validity The rwe report is parsed by the tool to gather info which ACPITables are actually mapped to ACPI namespace. ![]() The dynamic approach is used if the EFI already contains a SLIC ACPITable (somewhere in the EFI) or if it's prepared to have one. How does the dynamic approach actually work, what's the purpose of the rwe report and what has changed from 1.91 to 1.95? Not almost, they are exactly when compared all modules. I have modded it with rwe report and with SLP using 1.91 and 1.95. This is no info about if it works or not. Either Asus has pulled it and updated it silently or he got it from somewhere, or it's a beta version.or he dumped it from his PC in order to mod. It seems you are interested in details, so I try to explain them.įirst I definitely can repeat the guy who did ROM #1 with version 1.91 did not mod the original that is available on the Asus site. not including it), with the latest tool? Perhaps the ROM #1 guy didn't include it but then again, you're saying that using the official 1.91 tool, you were able to get a very close/similar output to ROM #2 so sounds like other factors were present -different source even though it's clearly labeled the same.Īnyway, thanks again very much for your analysis and very helpful information. Would the inclusion of the AcpiTbls.rw file (in ROM #2) cause a significant and meaningful difference (vs. I had not tested ROM #1 yet and was just holding off. I wasn't able to find any other modified ROM for this exact motherboard model with BIOS version 0301 (the latest) - besides ROM #1, that is. Since you are saying that ROM #2 was done correctly and it should work as-is, I will test it and report back. It still didn't make sense that so much data was different in a side-by-side diff type comparison. Yes, ROM #2 does have the SLP string added (it was obvious that ROM #1 didn't - from that post - so it shouldn't have been added to ROM #2 either for a "closer" comparison, sorry). But he definitely did not mod the original EFI which is available on the Asus site today. It might be a previous version, or an inofficial is really different where it shouldn't. There are byte changes near PE header of different modules which are not related to SLIC modding.īy using the original EFI that is available on the Asus site 0301 I could not achieve to get his modded one. It has too many differences as it didn't result to the same mod. Anyway he did not use the same original ROM to mod it. ![]() The guy who did the EFI mod with tool 1.91 (rapidshare link ROM #1) did a mod without to add SLP1. Tool 1.91 results to the same mod as expected. The guy who has modded the EFI (ROM #2) with tool 1.95 did a dynamic Asus mod and added an SLP string ASUS_FLASH additionally for OA1.0 (winxp) activation (module A062CF1F-8473-4AA3-8793-600BC4FFE9A8_1_134.ROM) by loading the Asus SLP string file into andy's tool additionally. ![]()
