Hi,
Could someone help trying to unlock this BIOS, seems that Dell have changed the layout of new Dell Pro 8FC8 bioses from checking HXD - 4000 bits do not need changing, only 2000. However after FF the section starting from '01000' upto 2000 bits and then soldering the chip back it seems that the microchip on the motherboard is recovering the bios back to original settings after first boot. Has anyone found a way to crack this extra layer of security Dell have implemented? Seems both HP and Dell have upped bios security to match Lenovo by implementing extra measures on a separate IO chip which hasn't been cracked.... just yet anyway.
I have attached both the original file and the modified variant that I made which still didn't work. SMDFlea have you got any ideas? If I were to post a bios of another pro 13 plus with the password on and one without the password enabled on the same laptop would that help?
