    Serial number is wrong in HP CQ50_100ED

    Hello ,

    I have reprogrammed the bios in this CQ50 laptop.And everything is working with no start up messages.
    But there is some info missing or faulty.

    I tried to correct it with NBDMIFIT but it did not work.

    Is this laptop too old to put in the correct info ??

              UART (serial ?) splitter ?
              by Dannyx
              Good day folks. I got a project on hand and would like some thoughts on whether it's possible to achieve, albeit impractical. You know me - I like to over-complicate stuff

              The setup: I got a Paradox EVO192 alarm panel, a serial-to-ethernet adapter and an official PCS250 GSM communicator.

              The task (TL/DR): connecting both the ethernet adapter AND the communicator to the single serial port of the Paradox panel. Connecting their TX/RX lines in parallel the data would get all messed up. At the very most, I THINK I could parallel the RX pins of the ethernet adapter...

              Lenovo T490 - motherboard serial - windows licence lost - after corrupt bios chip replacement
              by baletak
              Hi,
              had T490 with faulty bios chip. Bought chip out of ebay and soldered on. Laptop starts and works however serial numbers of laptop and motherboard do not match.
              I have updated laptop model number.

              1) I did not find the way to update laptop serial number - I have this one.
              2) I dont know where to get my motherboard serial number and how to update it. Is it somewhere physically on the mainboard? How do I update it?

              Hope to find someone to help me with this as I am hitting dead end at the moment.

              Many thanks

              Miro

              Asus Ally rc71l bios
              by chudofermer
              Hello!

              Received Asus Ally rc71l with the wrong bios.
              Have the original package and all serial numbers.

              Can anyone help me understand what is wrong?

              Condition:
              Received with an original box with all serial numbers
              Due to the bios updating, something went wrong and I can not check in the bios. The recovery mode sometimes appears, usually was stopped on the logo.
              Got the flash dump, nothing found on DMI section
              No Windows key, just key ID on the box

              What is done:
              1. Flash the latest bios version with serial numbers...

              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...

              [Help Please!] Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen4 Twist-Help Needed with Restoring Serial Number and Product ID
              by AWFRONT
              I have recently purchased a Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen4 Twist with Dual Screen. Here are the links for the product information:
              ThinkBook Plus Gen 4 (13″ Intel) | 13.3″ & 12″ Dual-Screen 2-in-1 Business Laptop | Lenovo UK
              However, somehow the serial number and the product name is no longer showing under the BIOS, Windows 11 or Lenovo Vantage.

              Strangely the laptop's under cover does not show any information about the Make, Model, Type or Serial Number (No sign of tampering but no labels etc...). I am not sure what to do.
              I do not have access to the original box...
