    HP EliteBook 8460P tattoo BIOS

    I am looking to "tattoo" or change the product, serial number, and UUID on my replacement system board. I have a HP EliteBook 8460P that had a defective system board, no video. I purchased a used board and it fixed my video issues and booted into Windows 10. The BIOS does not reflect my product, serial number, and UUID that I had, and is under the battery. I have tried several versions of the NbDmiFit tool and I get back "failed to write SKU number" and " Failed to write model name" ErrorCode=0x89. I tried the tool from within Windows as well from the wndmifit folder and I get system board not compatible. I must be missing a step, I can't believe this can not be done. Any help?

    Doing more reading I think I need to use EFI in some way.

      Try using Mazzif elitebook/probook unlock tool.
      It also has program option.

      If you want to program using nbdmifit, you need to unlock mpm (manufacture programming mode). I think first run on mazzif's tool did that.
