BIOS Binary File needed

I need a BIOS File (.bin or whatever they use these days) and RSA key (if known to be provided for the system), for my HP_Tools Folder on a usb, as my BIOS Folder is empy in the HP-Tools Folder in my Hard Drive and cannot complete the BIOS Recovery Procedure.
The laptop is the HP G62-450sv and I cannot find a way to extract the right one (BIOS) from the latest BIOS Update file from HP.
Thanks.
P.S. Deer HP please can you go back to the old days where a BIOS file was a BIOS file (binary form) and not a transcript from a movie! There is more files in an exe, than trash in the oceans...

[GeForceFX] Bios.rom file needed for a FX5200

Bear with me guys, I know I'm gonna get flamed for this.
I've recieved a MSI FX5200-TD128 video card that's been flashed with the wrong bios. I need to find someone that has this card and can make a backup of thier video bios and upload it to a website data base where I can download it from for testing.
This is the board I'm talking about, http://www.msicomputer.com/product/vga/vga_detail.asp?model=FX5200_TD128
Here is a link to a forum I've been working on this card with. http://www.mvktech.net/component/option,com_simpleboard/Itemid,34/func,view/id,22724/catid,13/
This card is supposed to have a 64 bit interface running 128 megs of ram but the post screen info and display properties show it having only 64 megs of ram. If I can find the correct bios to reflash it with it should show correctly at 128 megs of memory.
I've already posted quite a few pics of the card on that forum so I won't link them in here unless it's really needed. That site also has all the tools needed to make a backup of a vid bios, flash a new vid bios and edit a bios. You''l need to join in order to upload a bios file to their data base. I recommend it in case you ever have a problem with the bios on your vid card.

Just send an email to [email protected] for the BIOS, normally they are very willing to send you that version.

Error when reading back a binary file

Hello,
I am writing out a binary file consisting of U32 arrays, packed strings, and clusters. I get error 116 when reading back. As long as I am synchronized on the correct data position why should LV care what I write to the file? In the example I write a simple 16 element array and a time stamp cluster. When reading back the array I get the error. What is the correct way to do mixed structures? Thanks.

David,
You can solve the problem in various ways. The easiest might be to modify the writer VI by wiring a True constant into the "header (F)" input of your first Write File node. That forces LabVIEW to include a four-byte header that specifies the length of the array you are writing.
When you wire up the reader code the way you did, the length of the array you wire to the "byte stream type " input is irrelevant; by wiring nothing into the "count" input, you are implicitly telling LabVIEW to look for a header to determine the length of the array you are asking it to read. Because you didn't write any header, LabVIEW is interpreting the first four bytes of the array itself as a length. That length doesn't match the actual amount of data present in the datafile, so LabVIEW generates your error.
An alternative solution would be to leave the writer unchanged and modify the reader VI: wire an I32 constant into "byte stream type" and wire a 16 into "count". The choice depends on what you prefer and whether or not these binary files need to be compatible with some other program or not.
Another aside: you can dispense with your case that checks whether the datafile already exists. Just change the function input of the Open/Create/Replace to "create or replace" and wire a False constant into its "advisory dialog" input.
Hope that's clear,
John

Need Mini 110 BIOS (binary version)

Hi,
I'm hoping someone from HP is monitoring this forum and is willing to assist.
I'm attempting to repair a Mini 110 (VF704AV, mobo #579568-001) for a friend of mine who, after attempting to upgrade the machine, could no longer get past the HP logo. Like others I've found on various forums who have had this exact problem, this one refuses to go past POST and hangs on said logo, allowing no further input from the user (a brief AMI screen confirms "CMOS checksum error" before this occurs).
After hours of trying to get around this error, I've concluded a new BIOS chip to be the only solution. However, I need the binary (.ROM) version of the file as contained with HP's SP47135.exe package. I've found a few close renditions of this file on the 'net, but prefer to have the correct version before committing to have an IC flashed.
As an electronics/computer person who dates back to the Atari days (first job), I must say I've seen more robust upgrade processes. But being unable to extract the binary file is what pushed me over the edge here. I expect better from a company of your stature.
If someone at HP can e-mail this critical file to me, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

M-dog,
Thanks very much for taking the time to write. I had tried Winrar with no success, and just for yuks tried 7zip now. Same result: Both will expand the SP47135.exe file, but inside (along with a couple of .sys and .vxd files) is ANOTHER executable (308F0F19.exe) which cannot be decompressed.
As for what I've tried...everything I could find on the 'net. I had near success using a DOS-bootable USB flash drive containing a generic version of the binary file, renamed AMIBOOT.rom to supposedly trick the BIOS into some sort of "limp mode" using CTRL+Home upon power up. However, in each of 4 tries doing this, the BIOS file attempted to load and claimed to have done so successfully. But the promised "rebooting now" never occurs; rather, the fan speed goes into a gradual ramp up and nothing more. Next power cycle leads to the exact same HP logo and locked keyboard. (I've read of this scenario at least twice on other forums.)
Not caring and having nothing to lose at this point, I decided to pull the power midway through the 5th attempt at flashing in this manner. Well, that did it. I now have a totally black screen and can no longer access the flash drive. What this leads me to believe is that the others who have had this problem did not (necessarily) lose power during their failed flash attempt, hence my "less than robust" comment originally. I think the process is flawed and HP knows it.
A BIOS chip company on eBay will sell me the IC, but I have to provide the ROM data file in binary format, which is proving disgustingly difficult. Hence, my presence on this forum.
But again, thanks for your post.

Envy DV7 7212nr - I need the BIOS backup file.

Hi,
I installed the Lojack software on my laptop and the windows stopped working and started showing a blue screenerror. Because of this my laptop don't work and I can’t restore or reinstall Windows.
My laptop is a Envy DV7 7212nr.
The only solution is to rewrite the BIOS chip. But the BIOS file that HP provides to download can not be written directly to the chip because it is very large and can only be used when the laptop is running normally (this is not my situation).
So I need a BIOS backup's file to get record the BIOS chip. But as I don't have this backup file, I need another laptop like mine to get this BIOS backup file.
So I need someone who has this laptop help me.
Please, if you have the Envy laptop DV7 7212nr and you know make a backup the BIOS, please send this backup file it to me.
If I do not get this BIOS backup file, I will not have to fix my laptop.
Recalling that the file that HP offers for download not work. I need the file obtained by backup BIOS directly of a laptop Envy DV7 7212nr that is running normally.
Thank you.

This is the process to rollback to working version of BIOS.
1-Immediately after powering on hold/tap the Esc key.
2-When the menu appears, tap F2 for System Diagnostics.
3-In the list of items will be BIOS Management.Use the arrow key to move down & highlight it.Press Enter key.
4-You should now have a Rollback BIOS option.Use arrow key again to highlight and press Enter key.
******Clicking the Thumbs-Up button is a way to say -Thanks!.******

Need to create a function to receive binary files from Java WebDynpro

Hey,
I need to recieve files from java Webdynpro and save them as a file on the backend
system. After that, the file will be loaded to the documentum.
In a function module, I only can get the files as a String. Therefore (I think), I need the
binary file as base64 encoded. Otherwise I can´t get it as a string.
Now I need to decode it in the backend, but how? I know, there are HTTP-classes
in newer system, but not in the 4.6C System, I have here.
Any idea, how I can recieve the files in the function module and transfer it as binary
file to the backend system?
If I load a file from the gui with gui_upload, I get the binary file as an internal table
and can transfer it to the backend filesystem now. Maybe I can get the binary file
in this way in the function?
Thank You for Your help!

How to open and read binary files?

How do I open and read Binary files?

Did you look on The Unarchiver's web site where it has a link to older versions? http://theunarchiver.googlecode.com/files/TheUnarchiver3.2_legacy.zip
The best thing to do is ask your friends what programs they used to produce these files, or at least what format files they are producing. Otherwise it's like being shown a car and given a bundle of 200 keys with no idea to which one to use, or even if any of them work with that car.
Using The Unarchiver will likely not do anything because it too will not know what format files are involved, and they may not even been in an archived format. If they sent you a Word file without telling you (a favorite of Windows users to do -- it drives me crazy when they could have just sent them in plain text), The Unarchiver won't open them. If it's a picture file then using Hexedit will just show you a bunch of unintelligible stuff as shown in an earlier post, though you may see a line of text providing a hint.
As I said earlier, often .bin may be an executable program which needs another program to actually interpret it. That's what Java is trying to do. Still, it may think it can execute the file, but it is highly unlikely somebody would send you an executable program (and if they did I would not trust it). For all you know it may be a Windows virus.

How can I convert the binary file content to XML message

Dear friends,
I poll the binary file from a ftp server but the payload only includes the binary content, no XML structure in the payload, I hope to convert the binary content to a element node within the XML structure, how can I do that? via content conversion?
Thanks and regards,
Bean

Read the binary file stream using java I/O standard functions and convert the read stream to Base64 format. Now map this content to one of the field in target XML structure.
You need a java mapping for this.
what is your target system?
Thanks,
Gujjeti.
Hi Gujjeti,
Thanks a lot for your kind help, my target system is R/3.
Can I achieve that with a UDF or a simple way?

Deleting a single element from a binary file

I am working on a server application that must keep track of the messages that have been sent but not responded to. After I send a message, I append it to an array cycling through an uninitialized shift register and I write it to the end of a binary file. When I receive a response to a message, which was probably but not necessarily the first message sent, I delete that message from the array and the file. This allows me to look up entries quickly but also to maintain a permanent record of what messages have been sent and not responded to.
Basically, I need an intelligent way to make a file, or any other permanent storage medium, act effectively like a queue. The problem with the current implementation is that when I delete one variable-sized entry from the file, I need to move all subsequent entries, which are usually all of the other entries in the file, forward in memory to take its place. Is there a way to get around recopying the majority of the file or to implement this entire thing more intelligently?

You can organize your datafile as a list. For example In this list any record consists of a fixed size data field and referencies (file position f.e.) to the next record and to the previous record. You can then rewrite the record-have-to-be-deleted with new one, or you can "delete" this record modifiyng the referencies of the "previous" and the "next" records. When you will add a new record you can write one at this "free" place.
The other way is to manage two files. The first one contains your data record by record. The second one contains the numbers of the records and the corresponding datafile positions or record counter. This second file can be very small and easy-to-manage. It can represent the only record's queue position in the datafile. You can rewrite your records, mark them as deleted without moving large portions of data.
You can setup the datafile capacity in "number of records" term.
Additionally it is possible to use the records with variable length but it will be much more dificult.
Best regards, Evgeny.

Can I get a list of all binary files and what they do?

I'm a newbie to Oracle. Needless to say I'm blindly muddling my way through the experiance of installations/setup and managing my first database. I realize that there is a three tier system and for my system all three of the tiers are on the same pc! In short I need help with what executables do what. I've tried going through Linux howto's, online docs, and even bought a book on the subject but the book seems to stroke the benifits of using Oracle instead of actually telling me how to use Oracle. I'm using Oracle8i 8.1.7 EE (enterprise edition) on Linux RH 7.0. I would like a link to a list or the actuall list of all the binary files in $OracleHOME/bin/ and what each of them do. Also important log files I should consult regularly would be most helpfull. Thanks.

While you're at it, see if you can get a complete description of all the X$ tables.

Fulltext search of binary files outside of database in SQL 2012/Server 2012

This may be more of a Windows Server 2012 question but I'm not sure.
I have a system that holds large amounts of binary files (pdf, doc, etc.). The files themselves are held outside the database in a folder and a SQL table holds the metadata. I used the Indexing Service available through Windows Server 2008 to
create a catalog called "EFCATALOG" to index the contents of the external folder, then created a linked server called MYIDXS which allowed me to query that external indexing catalog from within SQL with a query like this:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver MYIDXS, 'Internal App', 'MSIDXS', 'EFCATALOG'
SELECT * FROM MYDOCS
LEFT JOIN OPENQUERY(MYIDXS,'SELECT FILENAME FROM SCOPE() WHERE CONTAINS (''test'')') AS MYTBL
ON MYDOC_FILE_NAME = MYTBL.[FILENAME]
With Windows Server 2012, I'm missing the functionality to create the indexing service catalog. I've added the Windows Search Service and see how I can configure folders for searching, but there is no naming functionality for this and I don't see how
I can get the above query/structure to work in Windows Server 2012/SQL Server 2012 environment. In fact, there isn't much at all online regarding the search service or the relationship back to the older versions in 2008 and before.
Is there any way to continue this structure in 2012? I would like to avoid recoding my application to work with a different structure. I'm afraid that changing everything to work with the FILETABLE/FILESTREAM functionality added in SQL 2012
will be necessary which is fine long term, but not convenient right now.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions/help.

Thank you Fanny Liu, based on your link the syntax has changed dramatically. I need to query SYSTEMINDEX now and the structure is very different. It still seems that this new syntax requires creating a linked server of a different type.
I've tried:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'TEST', @provider = 'Search.CollatorDSO.1', @datasrc = 'SYSTEMINDEX', @srvproduct = '', @provstr='Application=Windows'
SELECT FileName FROM OPENQUERY("TEST", 'SELECT Filename FROM SYSTEMINDEX')
Msg 7302, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot create an instance of OLE DB provider "Search.CollatorDSO.1" for linked server "TEST".
I've also tried using just "Search.CollatorDSO"as the provider since that is the provider name listed in management studio but basically the same error comes back.
So I have 2 questions:
1) Is it possible for my original process to work in Windows Server 2012 in any way (meaning that the OPENQUERY example I provided can remain relatively unchanged)?
2) If change is necessary using this new SYSTEMINDEX and linked server combination, why is my linked server definition failing? I'm using SQL Server 2012....Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.2100.60 (X64)

How do I create a binary file using PL/SQL

Hi
Can you help me with writing a binary file in PL/SQL? I like to load binary data from data file, process in database then write to a new binary file.
Thank you very much in advance.

DBMS_LOB won't help you write a BLOB to disk.
You need to an external procedure to do that. Eric K's java works great and he's helped me with his solution and probably about a thousand others.
Doing a search on this forum will yield many discussions on this often regurgitated topic.

Error when Write/read Cluster in binary file.

hi all,
I implemented a code (using the Labview example) to save and read cluster data (see attached file). The write part works properly but when I want to read the file, there is an error : "Error 4 occurred at Read from Binary File in main_save_data_V2.vi; LabVIEW: End of file encountered'.
BUT the data are correctly open. Why is there such message? any suggestions?
thank you.

Instead of predicting how many clusters to read, just set the count in the binary read to -1. That will read all that it can and I got no error. Here is all you need in order to read the file.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions
