In the Windows XP era, by modifying the BIOS and installing the OEM version of XP, let us feel the fun of genuine XP; but now Microsoft has launched a new VISTA operating system, because VISAT uses the new SLP2.0 verification The technology, that is, by verifying the SLP certificate, logo and hardware-related features in the BIOS; therefore, the previous method of modifying the BIOS to install XP cannot be used for VISTA activation (XP adopts SLP1.0 authentication technology). However, SLP 2.0 technology also has weaknesses. We can use the information obtained from OEM hardware-various brands to port the verification data of SLP 2.0 to its own motherboard BIOS to realize the activation of VISAT. The purpose of the genuine VISAT function.
The mouse has introduced the article to modify the AWARD BIOS to install the OEM version of VISTA. For those who have an understanding, please refer to: Modify the AWARD BIOS to install the OEM version of VISTA
How to modify the Phoenix BIOS to install the OEM version of the VISTA operating system. Do a detailed introduction.
File modification requires Phoenix Edit and UltraEdit32 software can be downloaded from here Phoenix BIOS Editor.rar UltraEdit32.rar acpislic.bin
Here, the need to explain the mouse, Phoenix bios is still quite special, if you can not download to the BIOS Files, you need to back up Phoenix bios yourself, you must first have the original version of the BIOS file or the new version of the BIOS file, otherwise you can not backup the BIOS. This is because the BIOS file, in addition to the BIOS file itself, and the motherboard and other related information, the system backup is based on this information to back up the BIOS file, related articles, please refer to: Phoenix BIOS refresh and backup operation steps and related issues explained
First backup or download the BIOS file corresponding to the motherboard, then download the Phoenix Edit and UltraEdit32 software from the BIOS repair website.
After downloading, unzip it and install it directly by default (the default installation directory is C:\\Program Files\\Phoenix Technologies Ltd\\BIOS Editor). Since there is no shortcut on the desktop, you need to run it from the start--program.
After running, the main interface of the program is as follows. Note that because you need to open the entire BIOS file, you need to take up a lot of system information, so your machine memory should be as much as possible, especially open some large-capacity BIOS files; for example, the BIOS file exceeds 1M file.
First, we click "File" - "Open" to select the BIOS file that needs to be modified. Explain that the default file extension is "*.rom;*.wph", so we must have the BIOS that needs to be modified. Change the file name to *.rom or *.wph.
After the file is opened, do not close the Phoenix bios Edit program. In the TEMP directory in the Phoenix Edit installation directory (default: C:\\Program Files\\Phoenix Technologies Ltd\\BIOS Editor\\TEMP), we can see many files. These files are the module files in the Phoenix BIOS file that are solved by Phoenix Edit.
Find the ROM.SCR file, run the UltraEdit32 file, open the ROM.SCR file, the content is as follows:
Since we have to add the extracted authentication information file, we are In the ROM.SCR editing interface opened by UltraEdit32, add ACPI xxx.rom in the last paragraph, where ACPI refers to the identifier of the module file added, xxx.rom refers to the name of the added SLIC table file, select UltraEdit32--file--save, according to the original The file is saved. (Note: When adding, the module file name added after the module file identifier must be consistent with the actual file name, not necessarily ACPI2.ROM. If the user downloads the SLIC table file on the home page as ACPISLIC.bin, then the actual ACPI ACPISLIC.bin) as shown below:
Then copy the module file that needs to be added (this article takes ACPI2.ROM as an example) and copy it to the TEMP directory in the Phoenix Edit installation directory (note that the file name is certain) To match the file name when editing ROM.SCR, re-enter the Phoenix bios Edit file interface (do not close after running the BIOS file in Phoenix bios Edit, otherwise no files will be found in TMEP).
Open the BIOSCOD(X).ROM(X) in the Phoenix Edit default installation directory C:\\Program Files\\Phoenix Technologies Ltd\\BIOS Editor\\TEMP with UltraEdit32. Use the mouse to click Search in the toolbar -- Find, enter RSDT in the search content (note that you want to search in ASCII), as shown below
Modify OEMID_OEMTABLE to _ASUS_Notebook and save it, hex code 5F 41 53 55 53 5F 4E 6F 74 65 62 6F 6F 6B.
Since we are installing the OEM VISTA of Asus, the OEMID is changed to _ASUS_OEMTableID to NOTEBOOK. After the modification is completed, select Toolbar--File--Save, and save the modified result as the original file name. .
Re-enter the Phoenix bios Edit file interface (do not close after running the BIOS file in Phoenix bios Edit, otherwise no files will be found in TMEP). Since we modified the table file of Phoenix bios, Therefore, the Phoenix bios Edit save icon is grayed out. In this case, we only need to modify an option in the Phoenix bios Edit. Oh, even if you delete the original character and then enter the original character, you can.
After the modification is completed. Click this button with the mouse to save the edit button; if we only open the file and do not make any changes, this button is dark; only after the modification is made, the button can be illuminated and used. If the system is edited, there will be a prompt, that is, the editing is successful, whether to view the LOG file, if we click Yes at this time, the module address of the entire BIOS file appears, and the remaining space - hehe, a bit like CBROM /D parameter display BIOS content. If you do not want to view the LOG file, click No.
At this point, we click the OK button or select "No" in the "Build is OK" selection. The save box appears. We select the directory to be saved and the saved file name. Save it.
After the save is complete, use WINFLASH or Phlash to write the modified BIOS file to the motherboard. Then reboot, follow the normal installation of VISTA operating system, when prompted to enter the OEM CD-KEY when installing VISTA system, input or install the system and then change the number when installing, the command to install the system import certificate is as follows: need to manage VISTA activation can be done by running the command prompt slmgr.vbs -ilc <certificate path>\\oemcert.xrm-ms.
Note:
1, modify the BIOS there is a certain risk, please pay attention to make sure the motherboard BIOS backup file, use the programmer as much as possible, in order to modify the BIOS after an error, the programmer can be used to rewrite BIOS .
2, open ROM.SCR in UltraEdit32, if you want to add a file module, the file name added must be the same as the file name copied to the TEMP folder.
3. When modifying, do not close the phoenix edit program.
4. When using UltraEdit32 to modify, after the modification is completed, don't forget to save, and save it, you must save it by its original name.
5, after the modification, in the Phoenix bios Edit, be sure to modify it at will, otherwise it will not be saved.
