      Hi!

      Thank you for your answer.

      I try use the version 2.13, but dont work, the message error is: "This system board is not suported. Will not be able to set BIOS settings".

      There is a new DMI Tool version after 2.13 version?

      Thank you

        I found version 2.14, but the problam is the same. I try use the "BiosConfigUtility64.exe" with /get and /set parameters. If I try change the serial number inside generated file, they show the message: "Serial number is read-only", and not allow change.

        There is another way? Thank you

          another way is to put motherboard in MPM mode but you have to read your bios and write it with a programmer.

                      Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
                      by Wahaz
                      Hello,

                      I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
                      So I thought it was a Bios problem.
                      I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....

                      Changing BIOS Serial Number After Motherboard Replacement on EliteBook x360 G3
                      by Friend33
                      Hello,

                      I have an EliteBook x360 G3 where I had to replace the motherboard. Everything is working fine and there are no errors during boot. However, I have the issue that the serial number in the BIOS is incorrect. When I run the DMI tool under Windows, I get an error stating that I am not in Unlocked Mode and therefore cannot make any changes. I was able to change the Asset Tag directly in the BIOS. Now I am wondering, can I simply read the BIOS chip, change the serial number with a hex editor, and write it back, or what other options do I have? The old motherboard did not work at...

                      HP ProDesk 400 G6 mini - BIOS Password attempt to remove it
                      by beBoss
                      Hi,

                      as noobie to this please excuse my lack of experience.

                      I am trying to remove a BIOS password from this machine:
                      HP ProDesk 400 G6 Mini

                      but so far I still have no success.
                      I bought CH341 programmer and decided to give it a try.

                      The programmer came with 8 pin cables and connectors or whatever everything else is called so I had to buy a new 16 pin cable because the chip which I think is the BIOS is with 16 pins..



                      I connected everything and downloaded AsProgrammer and NeoProgrammer then installed drivers...

                      Lenovo Thinkbook 16P G2 ACH - BIOS Serial number missing
                      by TecnicaNTT
                      Hi all,

                      I got a Lenovo Thinkbook 16P G2 ACH on the bench with a botched BIOS (somehow my client blanked it). I restored the laptop and got it up and running with original BIOS from Lenovo Support website.
                      My problem is now that the machine details are missing in the BIOS (Serial Number, MTM, etc.)
                      I tried to write the details with the Lenovo Uone Tool but had now luck. It is giving me an error: "ERROR: Locate protocol with LenovoEeprom, Status=[e]. EEPROM fail when reading or writing data."
                      I am now asking here for help if anyone knows how to do this in...

                      How to transfer serial number and DMI data from bad HP BIOS to good one?
                      by xxxchudyxxx
                      Hi,

                      i have a corrupted BIOS file from a laptop, but i need to recover the serial number and DMI info (like product name, UUID, etc.). I also have a good BIOS dump from the same model.
                      Is there a simple way to copy the DMI data from the bad file to the good one?
                      HP 650 G3

                      Thanks!...
