Hi,
Long shot here but does anyone know if it's possible to spoof what Wifi & CPU are present in a particular machine to make Intel WiDi / Miracast work?
The install utility doesn't even start on an X62 because it complains about the CPU too...

Re: Spoof Wifi / CPU parameters to use Intel WiDi?
WIDI:
https://actiontec.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/ ... i-capable-
short article on WiDi and Miracast, note both standards are not same and is switched to Miracast after intel ended the WiDi support version.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiDi
If the creators who designed x62 did not pay for royality on this standard, you are out of question. I do not like half baked experimentals like this since I rewiewed the articles on chinese custom boards.
Cheers, thinkpadcollection
