UEFITool is free software released under the BSD License. There is also a great search feature that lets you search your image for a hex pattern, GUID, or text. Hopefully this will give you an idea of how the tool can help you. Below are screenshots illustrating the options available for each type of firmware component. What you can do with UEFITool depends on the type of the image component you select. The “Information” panel on the right side will show details of what is selected in the left panel: You can expand and collapse the various components of the image and dig deeper. The tool opens displaying a graphical layout of the image on the left side: EarthTime 6.17.3 6 MB Shareware 20.00 111087 EarthTime will keep you up-to-date on the weather and local time from anywhere in the world.

Will dump a system’s SPI part(s) to a binary dump file. EarthView is a dynamic desktop wallpaper and screen saver, displaying beautiful views of the earth with daylight and night shadows. If you compare the issues of the disks, maybe you can make an educated guess which should be replaced first. This could be an image you create as a BIOS developer, or you can dump an image from a system using a ROM programmer or Intel’s Flash Programming Tool (FPT.EXE). Go to /var/log/daemon.log and look for your disks, something like cat /var/log/daemon.log grep ada4 was sufficient to see the messages for the problematic disk.

I tested with version 0.21.5, available from the releases tab on GitHub.įor UEFITool to begin to do its work, you must provide it a UEFI image.

It supports parsing of full BIOS images starting with the flash descriptor or any binary files containing UEFI volumes. I tried without unplugging the battery and the fans spins up to max but looking at the led on my usb it only blinks once for power and it isn't indicating that it reads anything from the usb-stick. UEFITool is a cross-platform C++/Qt program for parsing, extracting and modifying UEFI firmware images. Acer Aspire A315-41 battery is built in so it can't easily be disconnected, i need to take the bottom apart. The program can be started directly without any arguments or supplied with a single argument - a path to the UEFI image file to open after start.

Here’s a handy tool for interrogating firmware volumes: UEFITool! It is written by Nikolaj Schlej, and is great for examing the Regions/Volumes/Sections/Files that make up a UEFI image. Install both of them, get the sources, generate makefiles using qmake (qmake UEFITool.pro) and use your make command on that generated files (i.e.
