Hello everybody!
I am new here and have been working on getting a PCI card (DMCA-82) to work with my Compaq nc6000 for quite some time now. Here is the PCI id for my card:
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_001B&SUBSYS_1600185F
Here is a link to the download for the bios from the HP site:

I have referenced the following threads on numerous occasions:
http://www.wimsbios.com/forum/topic9388.html -- This one is where I have gleaned most of my information
http://forums.mydigitallife.info/printthread.php?t=7681&pp=10&page=122 -- In this one, there was a nc6000 bios image with the whitelist removed, but it no longer exists.
Throughout the course of my investigation, I have seen the ADDCC (Awesome Dirty Do Checksum Checker) mentioned multiple times. Unfortunately, it does not seem to exist ANYWHERE on the internet anymore (this is so frustrating!!). I have tried to manually modify what it has done (with a hex editor), but my bios image failed (I will soon have a socketed nc6000, and then I can do any testing I want) --the modified bin is attached. If anybody could upload the ADDCC anywhere, I am sure the community at large would be very appreciative! Or better yet, if somebody could remove the PCI whitelist altogether, and maybe explain how to do it manually, this forum would serve to help anybody who happens to stumble upon it via a google search in the future. Thanks in advance!!
tl;dr
Can somebody please remove the whitelist from nc6000 bios?
Does anybody have the ADDCC they can upload somewhere? It no longer exists anywhere on the internet?
Thanks!
I just want to reiterate, DO NOT FLASH THE MODDED BIOS BIN I POSTED!! It will brick your computer. Hopefully this post saves someone from a big headache...
