Chameleon runs in kernel mode (Ring 0) to change the hard-coded serial number on hard drives and also the MAC address on network adapters. To get the drives back again, select Unhide all entries from the File menu.Īs most of the tools mentioned above are not really made for newer Windows operating systems, Chameleon is probably the only hardware ID spoofing tool that can run on Windows 7 and Windows 8. Alternatively, you can click on the File menu -> “Hide all PB related symbolic links”. Open the program and Expand -> GLOBAL?, select PhysicalDrive0 and then click Hide. This tool does something a little bit different and actually hides your drives and optionally network adapters completely instead of trying to spoof the serial number. Like PB Downforce, HWSpoofer will also try to spoof your network adapters MAC address. To run HWSpoofer again you will need to reboot the the system as blue screens or crashes are likely to follow if you try to run it again.

If you want to change the spoofed serial number, simply delete the ini file to generate another set of numbers. The program has no interface and you simply execute it to patch the system, an ini file will be created in the same folder with the spoofing details. HWSpoofer was tested and is only compatible with Windows 2000/XP but works along the same lines as PB DownForce in spoofing the hard disk’s serial number.
