booger_sniffer5000 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 did you read what he's saying . he said he swapped out his card which is intel to broadcom and it worked and all he needs is to go around the 104 whitelist check. stop sniffing booger it gets u high He said that he wanted to get around the 104 whitelist check on his Compaq which originally has a Broadcom, and he swapped it out with the Intel card. He wanted to know if he could change the SPROM on his Intel card, I told him that he can't because there isn't a tool out for the Intel card to change the SPROM value. what's??!?!? oh my goodness !!!!!!!!!!!! I don't see what the big deal is.

hypnotic Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 As well i know he got one more computers already in hand. First of all he has got a Power Mac G4 already. Maybe I am wrong, I know wrong, he may be broke all computers. So don't take my comment offensive. I just needed to answer this one since I check this topic everyday. Regards.

NoSTaBoNN Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 If people would check up on the iwidarwin site, they would know what's going on! IwiDarwin It looks like jalavoui is waiting on a laptop to finish the drivers. Probably because he screwed up the bios of the other one?

hypnotic Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 the question is why looking for a new one again instead replacing the bios chip and use hp marked intel cards as many people offered here ??

se7en Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 BIOS in almost all computers since 5 years ago... are easy to "bring to live" again... I haved the same problem on my ACER with Bios corruption... and with one external usb floopy disk and the right flash bios, can easly be fixed... in my i think its pressing the f10 key + power on ... I learned that with one guy that worked on computer manufactures... some people think that need to get other BIOS Chip.. etc... but sometimes the fix are very easy...

hypnotic Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 the solution is easy : just replace it with good BIOS chip and use hp marked intel wireless cards. thats it. or he can find someone who could do a favor for him to unplug his BIOS chip and flash it on a different computer. i do not see any excuse for a new laptop. just in case i repeat please do not take any my words offensive. i just share what i honestly think here. since i am upset of seeing people lost their hopes after 2 years or what ? regards.

2k1Toaster Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Call the laptop manufacturer, ask for a BIOS chip. They will send you one for free or like $5. Then just pop out the old and put in the new. If it is a soldered on one, they are usually 16 or less pins. Sometimes in 32pin QFN package, but still, not that hard to solder off an replace. If this is really someone who can create a driver, they will know how to do these simple and almost free steps to get a working laptop again. If he hasnt by now, then I am filing him in the scammer catagory.

NoSTaBoNN Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Read the post! FRIED! Power failure! Nothing to be done! If it would be fixable I'd have an extra laptop right away, 'Cuz mine died the same way as the HP did! So stop complaining about the BIOS Flash and just wait and read before posting.

2k1Toaster Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Power failure in a laptop just means either the battery is loose so bend back the metal tabs or the power connector is loose, solder a new jack. If nothing changed ie. He didnt get struck by lightning, the laptop is repairable for less than a meal at McDonalds. Anybody who can seriously write a driver will know this. Also anybody that can seriously write a driver will have a) multiple laptops, another desktop they can emulate hardware on c) the computer ability behind not being able to leave a computer for a long period of time. If my laptop dies today, I will have a new one by the end of the week. Meantime I will use my older spare. If that dies same time, use one of the 6 desktop PC's in the house. I am a Computer Engineer and Electrical Engineer. I for the most part like to think I know the insides and outsides of a computer. The interaction between them is what a driver is for, and that I have not done much with but am sure I could do given enough time. Someone who writes drivers probably has a similar tech background and similar computer habits. Even if he sent in the laptop to HP for repair, a hundred bucks later, good as new. Or just buy a new one for $400/$500. That is a few hours of work to a programmer, no biggie.

Sorry if this sounded like I was angry, But this is just topic fillings. Very Very good answer. He is right, stop asking guys and complain about thinks you don't know. This is like gsm boxes and unlocking, all people just sit dow on their computers and ask for solutions. Belive me, once MASTER JALAVOUI finish the driver, no one will thank's im they will just enjoy their wireless. Like I said, like in gsm world sometimes its beter that the solution never come out.

NoSTaBoNN Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 No biggy, Unless you are doing it for free. Jalavoui doesn't want anything for himself. He wants the laptop to write the driver for the cards. And as long as he doesn't have anything to write them for. He isn't gonna make any progress, so what's the use of reporting back to some people that don't appreciate his work. And only want to see results. I am a student programming. I know how its like not having enough money to just have spare laptops lying around or spare desktops with convertion modules. Because you "can" code drivers, and do it in your spare time ( to help others ), it doesn't mean you do it for a living. And a Power Failure can be more.. Mine died, Fried board... fixing that will cost u as much/more as a new laptop... I had the price made. I looked at the code of the driver, Even though it doesn't seem like much when you see it at work. It's a hell lot of code. And I really admire Jalavoui for this.

se7en Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Guys... in one of my BIOS update on my ACER Laptop, the I had an Power Failuer and BOOM... BIOS CORRUPTED... and I fixed without change any chip... I contacted the manufacter to get help and they said.. "Only with new Eprom.." bla bla bla.... So I contact with a friend of mine that work in computers manufacture and he said to me, in my case, the ACER as a Step to Fix BIOS ... so i get the right ROM of the ACER PAGE and follow the right steps and VOILA... work again... The only think i needed to buy was an USB Floopy Disk, plug and follow the steps... some forums help on that... but depends on what computer you use and what BIOS have... and I dont have sure, but its someting like ... take off all power ( battery and AC ) ... Press F10 .... plug the AC.... power button... still pressing the F10 key... and the computer boot automatic the USB Floopy and Re-Flash the Epprom ... EVERYBODY SAID TO ME THAT THE SOLUTION IS SENDING THE COMPUTER TO ACER AND SPEND A LOT OF MONEY AND THE SOLUTION WAS SO SIMPLE.. I ONLY TRY TO HELP BECAUSE THAT {censored} APPENED TO ME...IM SHARING MY EXPERIENCE...

chagchag Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Lay off it guys. Jal is writing the driver on his sparetime... It's not good sport to nag him about not having 6 more computers at home and what not. Jeeze... C'mon, not everyone who has skills with a computer lives in a rich country and can stock up on them like candybars. Stop filling up this thread with pointless bickering. If you want him to write the driver, give him a pep talk or a donation, not all these speculations about not being on the level. For god's sake, we are running H.A.C.K.I.N.T.O.S.Hs, we have absolutely no right to ask for customer support, let alone driver developement for our personal needs. HACK-INTOSH. Get it?

hypnotic Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 As well as I do know, this power failure is related with BIOS Chip. SINCE he flashed wrong ROM into his BIOS Chip. Therefore his HP notebook computer gives Power Failure error. I do not think that he played with his hardware. All I know is he played too much with his BIOS flash. If some of you really believe there is really really nothing to do with this notebook anymore. He could send it to me, and I promise I am gonna fix that notebook and present it to a really poor person who has not seen any computer in life yet. And I can do less than a few days. I swear I can do this. But If there is something else that we do not know beside his screwing of his BIOS chip UP ? Then I do have no comments here anymore. Thanks.

Please think before posting, stick with the topic and for people asking about the compatibility of an other wifi adapter, it's not the place, and I even find it insulting for the several coders working on the drivers here.
