    win8 key from bios dump

    Hi all,
    I have reprogrammed an asus bios chip with a dump file taken from the internet.
    I made a copy of the corrupt original bios .
    I need, if is possible, to inject the win8 product key from corrupt bios to the working bios, or extract it and validate windows after installation .
    I read it's possible on working pc with read acpi table with a tool as rw everything , but if I have only a bios dump ?
    thanks

    If it's possible, the procedure is not public, i think !
    If you have the untouched original hdd, pc should boot and then with a software you can get the key !

      Upload the dump. I know how.

      Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

        The notebook's owner wants everything to return as before. because he wants to sell the notebook.
        Unix like os is well only for certain use.
        I use ubuntu 15 but, for example, to install a program is not intuitive as with windows os and if some things go bad..... most tools for certain hardware are not available, for example for my bios programmer or for my oscilloscope.
        I don't want to go off thread...

            I need a BIOS dump for the Samsung S49CG934SU monitor
            by Habble7
            The Samsung S49CG934SU monitor does not power on - no LED indicator activity and no response to power button. However, when 21V power is connected, it immediately draws 0.8A of current with no display output. The motherboard processor gets warm, and there is continuous reading activity from the W25Q128BV BIOS chip.

            Suspected Cause:
            I suspect the BIOS may have been corrupted during a power interruption while updating the firmware. The official website provides firmware updates, but they can only be installed via USB flash drive.

            Troubleshooting Attempts:

            MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 - real bios dump from board needed (no stock bios)
            by DynaxSC
            Hi, I have an MSI PRO B660M-G DDR4 board with damaged BIOS and i need a bios dump from a real board, along with MAC, UUID and Serial Number info (eg. a BIOS screenshot and pictures from the board stickers).

            I need to reconstruct the bios on my board, based on another bios image form a real board - meaning a bios image containing MAC address, UUID and Serial number. A stock BIOS is not suffiecient, as it is impossible to discover where the MAC, UUID and SerialNumber are stored. Tried with a similar board, but there are too much differences, and the stock BIOS is missing a lot of...

I decided to make a new thread since it's a new issue, but please move if I made a mistake.

            Who has a MSI Z590 PRO WIFI - Need BIOS dump ?
            by DynaxSC
            Hi,

            I need a BIOS dump for MSI Z590 PRO WIFI from a real physical board, along with MAC address and serial no.

            It must be a dump from a physical board, as it contains personalized data eg. MAC Address, UUID, Serial no.

            I have a board which has lost the BIOS contents, I have the MAC and serial to this board, and need to insert it into the another BIOS image. To do it, I need to have a real image from a real board, as the images from the MSI site are without this data. The only way to find where MAC/UUID/Serial is located in the BIOS is to have a bios...
