Not Working on Vostro 3750 Modified BIOS #132

Closed meowdroider closed 11 months ago

meowdroider commented 1 year ago

I have a Vostro 3750. After a lot of reseach on BIOS, I flashed a modded bios just to get UEFI. It is UEFI right now but hack bgrt is not working. I wanted UEFI only for Hack BGRT. I used this tool on my friends computers. I loved it. Please tell me a way to make this work on my machine.

Do you have Secure Boot off ?

meowdroider commented 1 year ago

Secure boot is not even supported on my laptop.

I don't really know, if you can't boot on Windows try re-installing Windows. If you don't have any problem with Windows try another method to change the boot logo.

Maybe HackBGRT doesn't work because it's a modded BIOS and not the original BIOS.

Did you also reformat your hard disk to GPT, so that the machine actually boots with UEFI? Did you manage to install HackBGRT or did you get some error message during setup? If you got that far, then you will have to set debug=1 in the config.txt and take a picture of any texts that appear when booting.

Please try the new release. If you run into problems during installation, please provide setup.log file for any further assistance. If installation succeeds but the image is not changed properly, change the last line in config.txt to debug=1, reinstall and provide a picture of the debug output shown during boot, along with setup.log from the installation.

Closing bugs from obsolete versions. Please reopen with proper setup.log if this is still valid for the most recent version.
