It accepts my choice for vPro, when branding (1 - to pick vPro, 9 - to finish with a little warning : this platform is in MPM lock state) but on the next reboot I still see 'machine is not in the committed state' and tool does not confirm the commit, shows the following:

Repoaps DMI Tools.zip (3.55 MB, 3538 views)Īre there any updates to the latest version of this tool, having issues 'branding' the EliteBook 840 G3. I want to thank all who posted to try to help me in my hour(s!) of frustration.Manufacture Programming Mode in Unlock mode MPM.zip (3.03 MB, 4823 views) Nothing is worth the stress I was feeling over this stupid PC-now if I can get the NIC to work and test the PSU (likely replace it, too), there will again be peace in the valley. Sooooooooo.I am going to get a used NIC off of Ebay, like an Intel PRO, and then move forward. (Imagine a smiley here, pullin' out it's hair!) Then the next time, video is ok but the NIC won't work. I am tempted to put in a used NIC card and go from there-less headache and CHEAP! Then the next time it boots up, there is no video. This means I can't change the Windows key either. All I can get is a local connection-no internet. I have tried Microsoft's version and Nvidia's most recent version. Now that the OS is installed, I can't get the driver for the Nvidia Ethernet Controller to work. I am starting to think that I have a bad power supply as well. FINALLY, it took and it is still flakey at bootups. Now, I have tried to do this several times and it would BSOD me. I have NEVER had this much trouble fixing a PC in my LIFE! Grrrrr! OK.I installed a Dell copy of Vista Home Premium on this system. Here is what I decided to do, and my tale of how that isn't working out so well, either. Here is what I found:Įverything seems to be in order, yet it will not let me run the recovery disks. When I ran the Phoenix-Award DMI utility, I chose 1 to see exactly what it was detecting. The Build ID is 74nav3pra1 and it matches the bottom of the machine, as well as the system recovery disks. The Product number for this unit is GN556aa Here is some info on the BIOS from the setup screen: Can anyone offer some direction so I can get this system running? I am SO stuck!! Yet, I still get the message 'This PC is not supported by these disks.' when I try to use the system recovery disks. I have ran the Phoenix-Award DMI utility, by using an IDE DVDRW, and saw no errors when I picked option 2. I have ran the HDD DMI took successfully and the information is on the hard drive.
