I'm confused. I have Lenovo B590 which now has bios version H1ET85WW(1.23) and 20208 would be the most likely version according to other users who also have this bios version . However if I enter my serial number at Lenovo website it proposes H9ET92WW as latest bios update. This does not work when updating and throws an error.
My laptop has Core i5-3230M and HM77 chipset and already updated ME FW version 8.1.72.3002 . But planning to disable/remove it when getting more at ease with bios modifying.
What does H9ET92WW.exe check ? Is it slic code ? So that only devices with TP-H9 slic code get this update ? CPU-Z shows laptop as being version 62742BG . I understand there are also 20206 and 20208 versions....
I'm also trying to remove whitelist. I extracted body with uefitool. Can someone tell me what language this is in so I can read up on the syntax and understand the subroutines and functions. I found it at
jmp short loc_B39 => mov r8, cs:off_258 ; "1802: Unauthorized network card is plug"...
But how to change so it jumps over whitelist check ?
Trying to figure it out for myself instead of having to ask people. I would be glad to learn something new
How can I flash H9ET92WW ? End goal is: keep w8 key from MSDM table and slic 2.1 and remove whitelist.
Slic should be no problem as marker tool fl2.exe should write it again according to TP-H1.DAT file ?
Thank you for pointing in the right direction
