Before spoofing, make sure to review your current serial numbers and take a screenshot of them. Once you've finished spoofing, you can go back and compare the values to verify that the changes were successfully applied.

Step 0: Prepare

Before we begin spoofing, we first need get and install all the required tools:

  1. EFI Spoofer: Downloadarrow-up-right

  2. HWID Checker: Downloadarrow-up-right

  3. USB flash drive Buyarrow-up-right

After downloading all the necessary tools, proceed to enter your BIOS and adjust the following settings:

  1. Disable Secure Boot and clear the Secure Boot keys

  2. Enable CSM (Compatibility Support Module)

  3. Disable Fast Boot

Next you need to Format your USB flash drive to FAT32:

  1. Right-click on your USB flash drive in File Explorer — in my case, it's named "ESD-USB (D:)".

  2. Now press the button called "Format...".

  3. Under "File system" select "FAT32"

  4. Now press "Start" and wait for the process to complete.

After setting up your USB flash drive, you need to boot from it:

  1. Enter your BIOS settings (if you're unsure how, search on YouTube: "how to enter BIOS [your motherboard brand]").

  2. Now go to the "BOOT" tab in your BIOS and set your USB drive as the first device in the boot order. If you're not sure how to do this, search on YouTube: "how to change boot order [your motherboard brand]".

  3. After that exit out of the BIOS

Step 3: Post Spoofing

Now that your Main Serial Numbers has been successfully spoofed, you can move on to other system identifiers, such as your MAC address, Volume ID, or Disk Serial Number. These values are often used by software and anti-cheat systems for hardware identification.

I'll cover how to spoof each of these as well. So if there's already a dedicated page or section on these topics, feel free to go ahead and complete them next.
