Version 2.10 is the most current (as of sometime in 2016). I have attached that NbDmiFit-2.10.zip file to this post in case the original disappears. Next, become familiar with the documents in the README folder of the NbDmiFit, in particular the flow chart on page 5 of HP Commercial Notebook Step-by-Step Guide – 2.10.pdf.Next find and photograph all of the labels that you can find inside the bottom of your laptop.You are looking for the SKU Number, System Configuration ID, Serial Number, and System Board CT. According to the Step-by-Step Guide, the next step is to create a Windows PE USB disk.I struggled with this for many hours, and while I could create the bootable Windows PE (v10, v8, & v2.1) USBs, I could never successfully run the Wndmifit64.exe application in that environment. HP has a WinPE64-2.10 tool that automates this process, but I failed to replicate it with the Windows ADK.

My recommendation is to use an MBR install of Windows 10 rather than the fancy Windows PE method. Note that a GPT/UEFI install of Windows will not work. My solution was to install a blank harddrive into the laptop, and install Windows 10 Pro onto it using a USB drive created with the Windows 10 Download Tool. #Hp dmi tool 2019 windows#īoot into your Windows MBR harddrive, which will likely require you to change the BIOS setting from UEFI Native to Legacy.Note that the BIOS Boot Mode of the laptop must be set to Legacy in order to create a Windows MBR install.
Once in Windows, run Wndmifit64.exe which is located in the WNDMIFIT folder of the NbDmiFit-2.10.zip package. You will likely receive an error telling you that the MPM (Manufacturing Programming Mode) is locked. You will need to unlock the MPM, run Wndmifit64.exe, and then relock the MPM. To unlock the MPM, copy the FSMC.bin file from the WNDMIFIT folder to a Fat32-formatted USB drive. Plug the USB drive into the laptop with the power off.
