    Hi,

    PremaMod seems like a very powerful and useful mod.

    I can't seem to find much in terms of an "idiots" guide to PremaMod, and I'm very keen to start using it.

    1. Will you void the warranty with PremaMod? Or can you restore your original bios to if you have to make a warranty claim?
    2. What settings should you backup before you write on Prema Mod- Bios & vBios?
    3. Does PremaMod make it possible to setup a Hackintosh?
    Any help is much appreciated

    1 - You should ask Prema with that one. I'm sure it's possible.
    2 - I'd say backup anything important as a general rule, just in case. Also, a stock BIOS or your original BIOS etc, should work.
    3 - I read that somewhere, but definitely ask Prema for it.

    1. Stock BIOS are also hosted on the blog. If you want to be covered by warranty and get updates before the public you can also purchase the system directly with Mod from one of the Partner Shops.

    2. Check if your system BIOS is set to UEFI Mode, if it is re-enable it after the flash in order to be able to boot into the OS (Windows). also remove all BIOS/SSD Passwords before the flash.

    3. Yes, on most systems it gives you the additional options that make it a lot easier to install.
