@IanxxxIf so get hold of efistudio
Does it matter which version and can you help me be double sure hwo to use this i only found like one version of how to use it with a google search and it was really vague
Thanks again
head on over to PCwizcomputer.com and check out the software he has posted there… then use the content from this site to help understand what is being done... I wouldn't actually use it because it is for ethernet... but its still EFI strings just the same...
