    HP Omen 17-an004no BIOS UUID missing

    Hi,

    I bought a HP Omen laptop. The previous owner told me that it was not working.

    The laptop didn't start at all and I concluded that there was something wrong with the mainboard.

    I bought a refurbished mainboard (DAG3BBMBCG0 REV. G) and installed it.

    The pc works just fine after that, I could install Windows, etc.

    But one backup app complaines that the computer UUID is missing and the app doesn't work.

    I can see in the BIOS info page that S/N, product name, etc. is missing, and the UUID is all zeroes.

    I downloaded the latest BIOS version F.20 from HP and installed it. That didn't help.

    The BIOS seem to be locked and I can't edit the missing info.

    I've tried the HP Bios Config Utility, following the instructions in the manual, but the BIOS info doesn't change. Tried to set the BIOS to unlocked, add another UUID and S/N, but nothing changed.

    I also tried the NbDmiFit utility (versions 2.08 and 2.13) from this forum, but that didn't work either.

    So, now I've run out of ideas.

    Can anyone advice me how to set the UUID, or maybe provide a fitting BIOS dump?

      I might misunderstand you, but I have no "original" BIOS backup, because the pc was "dead" when I received it.
      Or do you mean that I shall post the backup files from the BIOS I have installed right now?

      Are the attached files the ones you asked for?

        Is it possible for you to help me edit it and add a UUID?

          Use HP BCU Bios Config Utility to enter the serial etc, then post the dump here if the UUID is still missing.

            Trying To Find UUID In BIOS Dump - HP 14-dq0055dx
            by grimacelord
            This laptop is the same laptop I was working on in this thread and I wasn't sure if I should post a new topic or post in that thread because I already solved the issue that thread was discussing and this is a completely different issue although it is dealing with the same laptop. I decided to make a new thread since it's a new issue, but please move if I made a mistake.

            Motherboard model number: DA0PAMB46A1 REV: A
            Secondary motherboard model number: 0PAB
            SKU: 685K4UA
            Serial number is: 5CD3223BJP

            ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
            by jbonavita
            Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
            With original bios no POST, only LED lights
            With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
            Some issues
            A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
            B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

            Things I tried

            1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

            [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
            by zenius
            Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

            Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

            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....
