QUOTE:
HP Cruise W5387, the motherboard is for ASUS. Although my computer is pre-installed with XP home, I am not comfortable with some other software that I don't need. My Computer master could not modify the BIOS information with Dmiscope, so I downloaded the ASUS Motherboard BIOS modification Tool "DMI236" to Run "DMI236/SM" Hewlett-Packard and "DMI236/BM" in pure dos state. Hewlett-Packard ", (note dmi236 and/between the spaces) then install XP, everything is OK.

We must use DMI236 this tool, each board parameter may not be the same, first with dmi236/g look at the motherboard of the company logo in which location, such as my Asus i945p is in TYPE2 inside, and then use DMI236/? Take a look at the help, which parameter is used to modify that position.

There is no clear, you can enter the "dmi236/?" It is easy to view the help file.
