Good day. The laptop has long outlived its usefulness, but I gave it one last chance as a Linux server. I need help with connecting another Wi-Fi module. I have an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 (622ANHMW) PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_422C&SUBSYS_13218086 module, which is lying around idle, I want to replace it with Atheros AR5B225 ven 168c dev 0032 subsys 1785103c.
Before creating a topic, I made a dump through the programmer, and tried to edit the ID using PhoenixTool. The module in which the list is located is called H19BIOSLock (CD28DACA-BDBE-481A-90AC-625C79CF234C), a modified BIOS was created according to the instructions, but its firmware does not allow the laptop to start and it blinks CapsLock 2 times. After long experiments, even changing one byte in the module does not allow the laptop to start. I also tried to correct the CRC by changing the signs in the names, and having an identical one, this also did not give a result. Bios from G4 and G7 also do not work, I tried the latest sp55442_NWL_UlkMenus_ByCamiloml.exe. I even assigned al 1 in IDA and skipped the cycle checks to disable WL, but this also did not help. Who knows well, help add my new network card or point out my mistakes.
Notebook Model: HP Pavilion G6
BIOS Version: F.6A
System Board ID: 3567
If this can be done on an older version of the BIOS, tell me where to download it, I will flash it with a programmer.
Below I attach my BIOS dump, and the exe file from the HP website
