I don't understand why you claim that protecting someone's copyrighted Intellectual Property is somehow illegal, or morally wrong.
What is both morally wrong, and illegal, is trying to steal copyrighted Intellectual Property, or through coercion (...the practice of persuading someone to do something by using force or threats) get the owner of it to hand it out for free.
The Custom Prema BIOS is a precious and valuable result of Prema's work, is copyrighted Intellectual Property, and deserves to be properly protected.

It's morally wrong when companies making profit from his work, Is this honest and legal?
I mean he edit and code from a freeshare bios. But did he wrote the full clevo bios code? It is like when you have a game and you want to sell a mod, is it legal to sell a mod? Yes he doesn't sell directly but his partners do. You want a prema bios so you mostly need to buy from a specific list of sellors. Restraining sellor list is not called protecting a code since a simple bios backup break the rules then sharing to the world is morally wrong. Yes you code a mod but you didn't code the full game. So i feel doubty about this kind of method of "sharing" and claiming intellectual propriety. Anyway it is not my problem and not my decision but the road he decide is not very helpfull for a restrained community even if i can understand his choices. -

There is nothing morally, or legally, wrong with getting paid for one's endeavors, particularly when they are unique, beneficial to many, and virtually impossible to duplicate.
You are totally wrong stating the the Custom Prema BIOS is edited code from freeware. It is not.
Given the above, does your position change?
If not, maybe Prema should just retire from this forum where he has done so much good, for so many, for years. It is people just like you that would make him do just that.
How about it forum members...is that would you would like to see? If yes, do nothing...but if no, stand up and be heard.Last edited: Mar 26, 2019 -
That you don't see me helping user silently in PMs doesn't mean I don't do it.
That you don't see me fighting for the community behind enemy lines doesn't mean I don't do it.
That I don't react to people cheating doesn't mean I don't know about them.
That I don't reply to you today doesn't mean I won't do it tomorrow.
Rest assured that I am doing my part day in and day out without loosing a word over it.
Change is coming, be patient.

Nope because i stay under the law. assuming your reading, Prema is the owner of bios clevo so all the code is wrotten by himself. By himself then yes he does what he want.
I allready tell that i totally understand his motivation and i might act like he did because his work is a huge amount of time.
But in reality, Prema is editing and might create new code under a copyrighted intellectual propriety. Sharing and protecting his intellectual work is allright, but knowing that some company is making profit of it is illegal because the bios is not totally edited at 100% from himself. It will be legal if clevo computer agree that method. But then even after that agreement, the unfair competition is questionable. I trully hope Prema will not be under law problems but im sure if he get some trouble, as a capitalism as you claim you are, you will let him down, even if his motivation are good. Im sad for him a lot of true users cant enjoy his work and selling Prema bios clevo is again not protecting anything as you can claim, this is an escuze. We all know as i said we can simply buy from a prema partner and backup the bios.
Anyway, i stay in my words Free access to knowledges for better sharing experiences
Dont mix personnal judgment by saying is people like me making him doing like that, that's a stupid conclusion. All i did was sharing my knowledges and experiences for pleasure. You assume i am the kind of man stealing work and ideas then selling by my name? Explain youself better what you meanLast edited: Mar 26, 2019 -

Don't write when you can't explain yourself about judging for no reason and mostly speaking for just spreading words. Speaking without shame letting persuade that i steal work and selling them? Since you conclude i am the motivation of Prema to act like that. From a company represantative, your are unprofessional to spread without proove even if it is true or not. Yes your conclusion is smart well founded to tell me in this way lol.. how to tell you more easier you spread fakness just for words. Someone who is judging and loosing words is happening when the truth is touch.
I remind you we are in a forum and we are here to share point of view in a same way. If you cant accept critics and cant debate, then just ignore my replies and ask an administrators if what i am writting need advertisment or not. But don't start personnal unfounded attacks, even more from a company representative. -
Wow, so with all you new bios modders out there....The biggest complaint is @Prema? Really? Why? I mean you guys have this alleged great working product and all. That you give away and *cough* brick *cough* other users machines and then you pass it off as "as is" and "at your own risk" And disclaimer blah blah blah. Then complain about reseller's selling it? No! What you are paying for is if you brick that said system listening to certain users in a forum, that they will fix it for you. And any direct damages connected with it. Sorry, but I don't see you new guys doing any of that. I don't see you with stock piles of motherboards or GPUs at 1100+ dollars just laying around at your house. Don't see you with advanced shipping nor overnight shipping or anything else connected with fixing a bad bios job. if you are, then i will retract my comment. Just because you unlocked some menu items doesn't mean "fully unlocked" Not sure how this term keeps getting tossed around, when if it were "fully unlocked" then no one would be asking Prema for anything bios related.
And even if you were to try and reverse engineer it....I sure hope you know what your doing and do not fry your board and gpu in the process. Because if I find out about it. I will be in here talking about it for the next 2 months! I will happily accept my forum ban for clowning anyone trying! -
Also, there is nothing wrong with monetising something that is good, simply because many people desire it does not mean it should be freely available for all. Do you expect to get software for free as well? -
This entire conversation makes my head hurt. Welcome to why you rarely see my text on these forums the last year or so. Let me get some things straight.
Mobile cards are DESIGNED to not be plug and play, and the driver install process proves this. They never were, and never will be, because as much as you or I or every enthusiast in the world complains, 10,000 people will prove that they don't care about our ideology for each one of us that does. And companies exist to sell things... whether they are worth it or not, or whether they even work or not, is irrelevant if people will buy it. See: AAA video games. Every Razer laptop made. 95% of everything ASUS gets out the door.
> Companies selling his work are doing so with both his knowledge and his agreement
> Clevo is not sending Cease and Desist orders to companies rebranding with Prema's mod
> It is open knowledge which companies are allowed to use his mod for retail.
So in conclusion:
Is it morally wrong that some companies go the extra mile and get sales for having superior products, services, prices, or otherwise-attractive-reasons-to-buy-from-them? No.
Is it honest? Yup.
Is it legal? Clearly.
You on the other hand keep trying to get your hands on a copy of his work while not being willing to buy from a company that provides it... so you can reverse-engineer it to produce your own work. Which as you've admitted here:
And finally:
It's give and take, company politics, and offered services. You don't just show up and decide "I'm going to sell these, gimme the mod and it'll be fine".
And I'll just pre-emptively prevent you from arguing against my points made here by saying I'm not going to discuss what I said with you further. This is mostly a "corrective" post, not a discussion opener, because like I said at the top, this kind of thing is why you rarely see me speak here in the first place. I haven't stopped learning or improving myself, or trying to help companies that are willing to listen.Ashtrix, jclausius, DaMafiaGamer and 5 others like this. -
I am trying to redistribute? Seriously lol...from where this point is coming? You cumpare me without any reasons and proof like a stoler and now im listed as a stolers for many without any fact. Asking something is far different from delivering. Thats why i dont like lyers and people who are spreading fake fact.
First of all i disrespect lyers and stolers, and mostly redistribuing not personnal work. I am against that conduct.
The option of an unlcoked bios are easy to unlock, Prema is doing far more than just unlocking some options.
No it is not allright to sell a project when you are not the creator! Redistribute for free yes but not making profit! The code is from clevo and Prema ad option and might have edited some, you got it? It's is like selling a mod from a game. I want to see how a creator will react if a user is selling a mod. Yes he create the mod, but the origin of the code is not. Orherwize you create your own game, you create your own laptop with own bios.
As i said, some eyes are closed, i would be interested to see the answer from clevo governance and only from them i will stop debating about the legality or not of feeling force to buy from a prema list to have the honor of owning a prema clevo bios mod -

Thats funny because again, you spread withput evidence, i totally agree you can ask a moderator my personnal conversation, because i ask to ONLY 3 members! So you spread ******** saying for months!! They can all come and share conversation and replies!!! But you cant admit the true evidence because the reality is not so a spicey story!
Then i am french speaker so i use a basic english and decoding words by words is not good because my english is limited.
And yes of course i want to learn, how do you think studies are working? From just copy paste without understanding? Make me laugh of course i want to learn like we learn a code to understand. Some people do job withput inderstanding without using the brain while some others jobs need creativity and basic understanding. How do you think prema has done his job? Oh yes he just hex millions of line without copy or learning anything, his knowledges come from the moon lol. -
I ask 3 members they bios and once one answer me is prema, i clarify and i send to the 2 others i dont need the bios before they even reply a sentence. And for asking even if it was prema or not, i am judge like a stoler. If this is not stupidity, what is it then? Now because of this im a stoler and someone who want to sell not personnal work. Again, spreading for spreading make me laugh about short conclusion.

hmmmm comparing Prema Mod to a simple Game Mod, insufficient analogy imho. its more like a complete recoding of an existing game, say, the Black Mesa HL2 full game remake with a complete engine overhaul which, of course, is based on the original HL2 game. sure, both share the same roots, but thats about it.
coming from a biotech background i can tell you that we as humans are 90 % genetically identical to cats and share 85 % of our DNA / Proteome with friggin mice(thats also one major reason why those lil buggers come in handy during pharmaceutical studies)
From personal experience, id say Prema Mod changes way more than just 10-15% of the stock Clevo Bios coding, and to see what a meager 10-15% can already do in terms of... wait for it....coding!

Since i promised yesterday to do some benchmarks on how the CPU behaves on z170 chipset!
BIOS has loaded defaults in place so no undervolt was done or any tweak to the CPU so far!
Throttlestop is also Off so i didn't took any printscreen from it since i'm not using any settings from it!
So here are the benchmarks:

Every time someone (Prema) generates an intangible output (new and/or edited code - Premabios) they are generating intellectual property that belongs to them. However, claims from the author seeking to enforce their rights relating to that IP will not be recognised unless the editing was done with permission of the original author (Clevo who can pass it through to the reseller) to use THEIR IP (base code) in that way, basically the 'clean hands' doctrine of equity replicated in IP law. That permission can be limited by conditions, e.g. "you can edit as you wish, but you cannot charge money for the end product" or any other kind of restriction (which is usually how it works for game mods).
Thing is, we don't know the terms of agreements between Clevo, resellers, and Prema, and they are well within their rights to keep the details private (commercial in confidence). But when things involve businesses, and are presented upfront and openly transparent to the market, and nobody makes known a complaint that their IP is being infringed, you can usually assume everyone's all above board acting in accordance with their agreements.
It'd be nice if Prema's mods were available for all like they used to be, but this is the way it's developed and we know what led to the change, so make sure the blame is appropriately directed to the scumbag that is responsible. -
Hi Everyone,
Could somebody share a 1070 gsync vbios which works with dsanke mod bios? I am not quite sure what bios I need to have for 8th gen cpu (8700k). thx -
-
Just is case this still isn't clear to everyone, yet:
Whenever you see a Partner Shop asking for a fee for the Mods or increased product pricing it is only to cover their higher risk involving RMA cases. None of that goes to me. They are not even allowed to sell you Mods as per our agreements.
Eurocon is the only company that has been repeatedly breaching this agreement by selling standalone Mods to user and as a result have been removed from the Partner program ever since.
In all the years I have been helping this and other communities, not in any mail, PM or private conversation have I asked a single user to send me X amount for any of my customizations or any of the time spent in helping them.
Everything has been donation based from day one and even if most of the time it meant not to receive a single cent in return.

One more question. What FHD 144HZ can I buy to keep gsync? In the km1-g the screen 75hz gsync. Thx

Nothing is wrong receiving even asking donations, nothing is wrong helping people, but selecting companies to make available a mod is honest? This is call business so if you don't have the aggreement from clevo, and mostly if you bios contains some line of clevo code, you are not under the law. You know what i am speaking.. it's the same situation if someone use your mod bios, hex it then redistribute with other companies. How clevo and yourself will feel? Because it is not just your work, but also from clevo. It's like owning a car, you stage the engine, remap it or make any other customs. you will make a great job but claiming is your full work is true and not, who built the original engine, got it?
Me i stop starting to express myself because the truth about when i was asking a bios is cumpared as i stole and redistribute a work from many members, this can only happen when thirstyness of notoriety from goats is present.
I am here and i stay in my point of view as when i registered in this forum: free non selective knowledge sharing between members and non members forever.
It is my point of view, i express myself and members are all free to debate or not, to accept or not. If someone loose the words and feel to start lying just for likes, then maturity should be the next objective he has to follow. -
It's 144hz with g sync. Plus your gpu needs to be the g-sync version and cpu needs to support it too (which the 6700k does since i had one too and now bought the 8700k). -
it would be 870km1-g (currently with gsync)
8700k + 144hz gsync screen -

This is exactly what you are trying to do, so how does it feel?

Your analogies need serious work. You rebuild a Chevy engine from the ground up, it's still a Chevy block, but none of the other parts are Chevy. The pride comes from "rebuilding a Chevy block" not taking credit for making the block. SMH!
