AES-NI support in TrueCrypt (Sandy Bridge problem)

[jnexus77]

For me it worked with winflash, my hdd was encrypted with truecrypt at that point.

I flashed modded N53SN v208 bios and it worked!
Thank you very much !

I have to inform you all that abujafar has spotted an update for the N53SV bios on the ASUS website (version 215). I just disassembled it and it's different from 214 (it seems to enable AES when a certain variable is set). Also the download page states "new instruction support". So I just went ahead and flashed it without modification and the bios setup now lets me enable AES. In fact, it's enabled by default. Guess they gave up on bothering us

[abujafar]

hell yeah!

[ankhazam]

waiting for the same for N53SN then

That would be great.

No new bios yet for the g74sx.

New BIOS update (2.09 with AES-NI support) for N53SN is out. And just as with SV model AES-NI was enabled by default.

Confirmed, AES-NI working as expected on my N53SN with the latest BIOS.
Btw. what's the current status, which notebooks still don't have AES-NI enabled and should have?

Hi,
I managed to modify my bios and enable AES but still for k73 and x73 officially is old bios 210 with blocked AES
