1.Enabled SSH on ESXi
2.SSHed to ESXi host and found s.v00 (/bootbank/s.v00)
3.Created a backup copy of s.v00
4.Extracted s.v00 with "vmtar -x s.v00 -o output.tar"
5.Created temp directory
6.Moved output.tar to temp/
7.Extracted output.tar with "tar xf s.v00"
8.SCPed bin/vmx to Windows box
9.Extracted bios440.rom with ESXBiosTools 2.1.1.7
10.Got ACPITbls.rw from a running VM
11.Openned Phoenix Bios Tools, selected "other" (because there was no HP there), selected an HP Server SLIC 2.1 bin file, selected an HP SERVER SLIC 2.1 certificate (both matched with "verificate"

, and loaded the acpitbls.rw file
12.Created bios440_SLIC.rom
13.Injected bios440_SLIC.rom on vmx file, sent it back to ESXi temp folder, changed permissions and ownership
14.Packed the s.v00 file again and moved it to /bootbank
15.Reboot
16.AIDA64 on a running VM reports _ASUS_ SLIC, even after i`ve choosen other on Phoenix Bios Tools and selected "HP SERVER" cert and bin.
17.I think that because of this it won`t accept a server license because ASUS has only client licenses, not servers.
修改VMware的BIOS中DMI信息以安裝OEM版Windows
1、用ResScope找到vm的記錄bios的文件,在vm的安裝文件夾下面的bin/vmware-vmx.exe,備份後打開vmware-vmx.exe,找到6006模組,導出為6006.rom,這就是vm的bios文件。
2、用Phoenix BIOS Editor打開6006.room,ctrl+d打開DMI Strings這個窗口,修改3個地方
Motherboard Manufacturer Name —-> DELL SYSTEM
Motherboard Version —-> DELL SYSTEM
System Manufacturer Name —–> DELL SYSTEM. (注意後面的小點,別忘了)
3、保存,然後把6006.rom用ResScope導入後保存vmware-vmx.exe。
.修改.vmx文件
bios440.filename = 「6006.ROM」
下載:BIOS440HP 可用於Win7 HP安裝
6006可用於WinXp HP安裝
