Hi,

has anyone tested the asl.exe Version 5 tool,

if it works under XP?

And if not, can this be changed?

This would be nice for to load DSDT tables to registry.

By the way I noticed, that for to upload a DSDT with asl.exe,

you have to change the revisionsnumber of the DSDT to a higher value, than DSDT in your Bios has.

This can be done with a simple hack in the dsdt.aml it is one Byte at place 08 , there 02 -> 03 (version 2 to version 3 of the DSDT table).

And you have to update your checksum of this dsdt.aml (-1).

This asl.exe version 5 does not crash with newer ACPI

PS: I cant install the WDK 8.1. Can somebody sent me the asl.exe Vers. 5 from there?

It should be in path of the WDK Tools\x86\ACPIVerify

also in WDK 10.



EDIT: Jessa, I got it:))!



I integrate its own DSDT (with versionsnumber of DSDT 2->3) with asl.exe Version 5 on the Q1900m board.

Works.
