Hardware Spoof

I spoofed my MSI GF63 8RC Laptop using a spoofer, something called heaven temp spoofer I believe. After spoofing my laptop, I restarted it and I was able to play the games I was banned from, but the spoof never went away. It stayed permanently and now windows shows that the laptop was manufactured by acer and has a prime z490-A motherboard. Spoofer changed the baseboard number, hardware id's, etc etc. I do not know how I can revert the old serials or fix the spoof as reinstalling windows from a usb did not work. It won't even let me install nvidia app and dragon center doesn't function as its supposed to, any suggestions??

If you need more information I can try to answer

Hello,

A hardware ban is the most severe penalty, as it identifies the PC or console itself and permanently blocks its connection. Tools that attempt to bypass this should not be used. There seem to be various tools of this kind, but using them is entirely at your own risk.

Have you tried booting from a USB installation media, deleting everything on the C: drive, and performing a clean installation of Windows? If a clean installation does not change the situation, it is possible that the contents of the UEFI BIOS were also modified. In that case, you may need to update the BIOS or roll back to an earlier version to refresh the firmware.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, please consider sending the PC to MSI for repair or purchasing a new system.

@nobuko c I tried those steps and also tried updating the bios, I have not tried rolling back to an early version but I could try that tommorow. I know hardware bans are hard to bypass but this tool worked. Problem is, I can't revert any of the changes made so i was looking for a way to fully revert it back to default

Understood. Please try performing the BIOS version downgrade and let me know tomorrow whether it makes any difference.

As an additional note, MSI also provides an official procedure for resetting the EC (Embedded Controller), separate from the BIOS. Please try that as well if you have not already done so.

If the EC (Embedded Controller) firmware itself was modified, please contact MSI support and ask whether they can re‑flash or update the EC firmware for your model.

If a BIOS or EC firmware update fails or the firmware has been damaged, the repair may require a paid service. In that case, the system will need to be repaired directly by MSI.

I'm not going to risk downgrading the bios mainly because I can't find an official version and I'm not experienced. I have been doing research and I might need something called a CH341A programmer and I may just have to take it to a repair shop and see if they can do anything to fully reset the bios. The SMBIOS has been completely changed so bios changes and firmware changes wont fix it I believe. Thankyou for your help otherwise, I appreciate it.

Thank you for your reply.

A mismatch between the BIOS information and the SMBIOS data is a serious issue.

It’s safer not to attempt anything risky on your own. I think the best option is to explain the situation to a repair shop and ask them to handle the repair.
