both is F8
Both what?
both files.checksum is same
also i have compared the files and program said files are same

excuse me fernando but if comparison result is same (f8) can the newer one be used ?

i could not find any useful articles about checksum-8 at web :(

Yes, if the newer EFI module has the same GUID (first hex code numbers) as the original module.

This is no surprise for me, because this is one of the mainboard manufacturer's secrets.

Do you mean first line of hex code with first hex code numbers?

Hey Everyone,
Have a small problem and was hoing I could ask for some help. I have an M18XR2 Alienware Laptop and I've been able to update the bios, but am unable to get the GOPDriver to install. For some reason, my GOPDriver is a little different as it is showing "SandybridgeGOPDriver" and "IVYBridgeGOPDriver" and the version info shows differently, too. SandyBridgeGOPDriver version 2.0.35.1018. I'd like to update to the latest version, but the GOPDriver Modules that are on here will not allow me to do so. Also, the module starts off (in a hex editor) with the following: C8 D0 06 and the GUID IS: F706D0C8-F6FC-4F7A-AC98-96BA5CC43AAA
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Swick

@swick1981:
I recommend to update the GopDriver modules by using CodeRush's UEFITool and by choosing the "Replace body" option.
This way the GUID header of the modules will stay untouched.

Tried that and for some reason it still gives me an error stating:
parseSection: section with unknown type 5Bh
parseSection: section with unknown type 8Dh
The module seems to be slightly different, but I could be EXTREMELY wrong - as usual.
Any other suggestions or tricks up your sleeve?
thanks,
Swick

EDIT 1:
Any other suggestions? that didn't work... tried, but for some reason it doesn't like those modules... perhaps I'm doing something wrong?

EDIT 2:
So, I used phoenixtool 2.66 and it allowed me to replace the modules, but it changed the GUID (The long string of letters & numbers that the module sits in). Is that okay?
Cause everything else seemed to work just fine. Just that the GUID changed after putting the new GOP modules into it. UEFITool didn't work, sadly.
Can you let me know when you get a chance, if this new GUID is okay - or do I need to do something else?

EDIT by Fernando: Merged the 3 originally separate posts (to save space and for a better clarity of the thread)

How did you try to replace the GopDriver module body? The exact procedure is very important.
According to my knowledge the UEFITool will be the best choice for your task.

You should not change the GUID header, because this is the mainboard vendor specific part of the module.

So, I guess i was screwing up, AGAIN...
I went under the plus sign to the PE32 image section, clicked on replace body, and then inserted your GOP File... Looks like that worked, at least I don't have any errors when I open up the bios file in UEFITool.
Thanks for the help... Can you confirm I did the mod correctly with UEFITool?
Thanks again!
