RogueSpear Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 This is from a Panasonic ToughBook laptop. It reads as Matsus***a which I believe is the parent company. And it looks as though the filthy mouth filter thinks that I'm trying to swear in the manufacturer's name.89799F58.rarMD5: 2D5EBFF9810EEF9F3C57F030A5A7BDE5Manufacturer: Matsus***a Electric Industrial Co.,Ltd.Model: CF-29NWQGZBM4D617473 75736869 74612045 6C656374 72696320 496E6475 73747269 616C2043 6F2E2C4C 74642Eoembios.bin - DE14112Coembios.cat - 89799F58oembios.dat - 002D6594oembios.sig - 9F10320F
Bezalel Posted October 27, 2006 Author Posted October 27, 2006 @Bezalel: The ASUS OEMBIOS Files on your share are corrupt. At least oemscan says that. I already double-checked my checksums with yours and they match, so there must be something wrong with the files on your share.Does anyone have correct ASUS_FLASH files?The files I have have a valid MS signature Pleas check your SHA1 checksums for verification.BIN 066bef4fddc580ce48759e852f557e68de8b8a73CAT 8e1fae9079ddb07f18d2d8f73cef4b7f44c90d39DAT b1e9e2751b3eceaaf1bcc0494ddbe0503ab19ad8SIG fa609577140e3d058b18791956443ec26e7607d3

My files match the checksums. I tried it with an ASUS board and because oemscan matched the OEMBIOS files for ASUS, I thought it should work. It is a single board, not an ASUS PC. Any way to modify my DMI table so that Windows recognizes the OEMBIOS files?
xehqter Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 (edited) Sorry, my fault. My files match the checksums. I tried it with an ASUS board and because oemscan matched the OEMBIOS files for ASUS, I thought it should work. It is a single board, not an ASUS PC. Any way to modify my DMI table so that Windows recognizes the OEMBIOS files?Use this entry in the oemscan.ini file for the ASUS_FLASH (B20C65BF) OEMBIOS file set to avoid false positives. In your oemscan.ini file did you search for asus or asus_flash?[ASUS_FLASH]PATH=".\Asus"RANGE="0xFC000:3FFF" Edited October 27, 2006 by xehqter
Sonic Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 Oembios files method is ONLY for OEM based computers.A motherboard isn't sell with Microsoft Windows, isn't it ?!Do not try to h*ck the dmi, discussion about that will be banned.

severach Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 so is anypne gonna help? he really thinks this will save him alot of time because of the fact he formats alot as he is a beta tester and programer.Read the threads. They are long but they explain everything.
pauluk83 Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 i have read it, but i dont understand how to chose what set to use, crc of the oembios.bin is 57DBAB59 so how do i know what set we would have to use, or would i just use the hp set?
xehqter Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 oembios.cat is used to identify the set NOT oembios.bin. Choose the file set that corresponds to the manufacture of your computer. HP is tricky, it could be either 06D652A4 or CD4E1902. If you want to know for sure download oemscan and run it in a command prompt. If it says that it matched “HP PAVILION” get 06D652A4 and if it says it matched Compaq or Hewlett get CD4E1902.

If it says that it matched “HP PAVILION” get 06D652A4 and if it says it matched Compaq or Hewlett get CD4E1902.right i am still slightly confused..i ran the vbs file and it said Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard Model: hp pavilion ze4900 (PJ947EA#ABU) 4865776C 6574742D 5061636B 61726420but the oemscan said Reading BIOS MemoryMatched: CompaqChecking Authenticity of OEMBIOS filesCAT file currupt: C:\Documents and Settings\Chris\Desktop\HPQ\OEMBIOS.CATthe laptop is definatly a hp pavilion ze4900, so why has it said that it is a compaq, so what set do i use?
xehqter Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Like I said above if it matches Hewlett or Compaq use CD4E1902. Some HP systems embed the word Compaq in their BIOS, its normal. If that isn’t confusing some Compaq’s use “HP Pavilion”
RogueSpear Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Just wanted to report that OEMScan works perfect with the Panasonic files. Between all of the ToughBooks and all of the Dell laptops I have here, this is going to let me reclaim around 1/3 of my VLK seats at work.Bezalel and xehqter I really can't thank you guys enough for this
