I've tried following semi's advice on what bytes to use as the correction area and I'm not getting anywhere with it. If you get it to work, let me know what you did as s...

I did exactly this with my nc6000 and I'm surprised you actually tried it after reading this thread!!

At least now mine's socketed and worst case scenario I can just remove the PLCC32 and reflash.

Okay - just so I'm getting this right... "add (mathematically) together all original hex numbers what you intend to modify in the BIOS" That would be: 11 0E E5 00 E6 00 (the original vendor and subsys IDs, omitting the F7) = 1EA then "and also add together all hex numbers what you write in!"

I tried the above with my NC6000 (before reading this) and can confirm it doesn't work. It looks to be some kind of CRC check as apart from the power light, fan and DVD-...
