- HWID Spoofer Not even a hardware ID ban can stop GamePron users from hacking in their favourite games, as all you've got to do is use one of our HWID Spoofers. While other players will ponder life after a hardware ID ban, you can relax! We've always got new hardware ID options for all of our users here at GamePron.
- The HWID Spoofer will fake your hardware ID serials and spoof your network adapters so that games/anti cheats can’t recognize you as a previously banned user. Running our spoofer will let you become a new clean user for the anti cheat, making sure you don’t get HWID banned again. Spoofer is running in kernel mode (ring0).

Any program to spoof machine hardware like GPU / CPU for a game? Now whenever I research this topic again all i find are people claiming 'but oh it will run like crap and blahs', but my case is a little different here, actually it is to downgrade my hardware specs to legacy / eol programs that were designed to run on older hardware and windows.
Some multiplayer games that implement the PunkBuster anti cheat system get cheaters off the server using hardware bans. It used to ban the hard disk serial number but no longer does that since there are ways to spoof and temporarily change the so-called hardcoded serial number. So now they’ve started to ban the CD-Key. Other than that, some licensing system also uses the hard disk serial number to generate a unique hardware ID which is then used to generate an external license file to activate the software.
A simple way to find your current hard disk volume serial number is to open a command prompt (Win key+R and type cmd) and then type dir. The second line shows your volume serial number for the system C partition. Type dir [driveletter:] and it will show a different serial number even if the volume is on the same physical hard drive. The volume serial number changes every time you format the partition and Windows also uses this value during activation so you can’t simply move your install from one partition to another. If your Windows has been activated using a product key from a sticker it will probably ask for the key again after a reboot and will need reactivating if you change the volume serial number on the system drive.
If you do a simple search in Google, you’ll find tons of information about to change your hard disk volume serial number, but not the real hard disk serial number that is hard coded into the hardware. Some people said that it is impossible to change it, but we will show you that there are ways to change both volume and hard coded serial numbers for your hard disk.
1. Hard Disk Serial Number Changer
There are a few free tools around capable of changing the volume serial number and one of them is called Hard Disk Serial Number Changer. The name is a bit misleading though as it doesn’t actually change the hard disk serial number but the volume serial number which is different. It works on just about any Windows operating system from 98 onward and is a standalone portable executable but does need to be run as administrator on Vista and 7.
Usage is pretty straightforward and you simply choose your drive from the drop down box, enter the new serial number and click the Change button. Do note the serial number format as mentioned in the window is made up of 8 hex characters from 0-9 and A-F split by a “-” into two groups of 4. You will then need to reboot to commit the changes.
2. VolumeID
Another useful tool to change the volume serial number is by Sysinternals called VolumeID. This tool is only usable from the command line so won’t be as quick and easy to use for some people as Hard Disk Serial Number Changer. The command line usage to change the ID of a drive volume/partition is:
volumeid [driveletter:] xxxx-xxxx
The format is again 4 hex characters, a “-” followed by another 4 hex characters. You should shut down all your running applications before using this tool and will need to reboot immediately after the changes if they are being made on an NTFS partition.
The tools above are fine for changing the serial number of a volume/partition but trying to change the serial number of the actual hard drive itself is a whole different story. These are hard coded into the hard drive itself and cannot simply be edited or altered using a piece of software. There are however, several tools around that can spoof the hard drive’s built in serial number temporarily which can hopefully fool whatever software you are trying to get round. Unfortunately a lot of these tools aren’t free and some are even approaching $100 to buy.
3. PB DownForce
There is a free tool that’s been around for quite a while called PB DownForce which is able to temporarily spoof your hard drive’s static serial number into a different random or seeded number. There is also an option to set your own predefined serial number although we were unable to get that function to work during testing. To use the program in it’s simplest form, all you have to do is start it up and click on the Start spoofing button. Make sure to run PB DownForce as administrator.
The Advanced options button shows the 3 different types of spoofing to choose, although as mentioned we couldn’t get method 3 to work as intended and it just showed a serial full of a single number. You can easily use the Stop Spoofing button and try another random number. Perform test will quickly tell what drive model name and serial has been given. The image below shows a new serial after using PB DownForce to change a hard disk serial number in the PC Wizard hardware information tool. Do note that some tools such as Speccy will still show the original serial number for the drive because they gather their data in another way, HWInfo does something different again and will show the spoofed drive as another completely new hard drive in its list.
PB DownForce was tested and worked on Windows XP and Windows 7 32-bit although it still was quite random to which machines worked and which showed no change or produced an error. 64-bit Windows is not supported in any free hard drive spoofing tools we came across. The spoofed serial will return to normal after a reboot.
There are several more hard disk serial number Spoofing tools on page 2.

ReplyReboot as in restart. As far as I’m aware, reboot your computer has never implied resetting or reinstalling it.

ReplyAbout PB Downforce,
Well the Windows Service I grabbed turned out to be a .sys file, obfuscated by VMProtect(1.X).
It’s internal name, as Windows Explorer tells me, is: ‘helper.sys’. So, this means it’s a Windows Device Driver, a .sys file.
But that’s food for IDA Pro, when I’ve got the time.. :)
Regarding PB Downforce,
The executable drops a service into your %TEMP% folder, which it uses. It’s the temporary folder from Windows.
What I did was, preventing the removal of contents in my %TEMP% folder. Very interesting, now I’ve got the service DLL to tinker around with.. Let’s see if that contains a virus. :)
Windows Defender quickly picked the DLL up as ‘ Trojan:Win32/Tiggre!rfn ‘.. Could be bad..

Windows Defender is well known for false positives. In fact, it’s one of the worst there is.
However, tools like this will generate detections in AV software, it’s unavoidable.
ReplyConcerning PB Downforce, I got interested.
Windows operating systems based x64-bit, have KPP (Kernel Patch Protection). So the hooks on DeviceIoControl, which PB Downforce applies, are rendered useless.
If you’re on a 32-bit system, then there’s no problem for you.
Some notable strings in the PB Downforce executable are as follows, after unpacking:
IOCTL_STORAGE_QUERY_PROPERTY
SMART_GET_VERSION
SMART_RCV_DRIVE_DATA
IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS
IOCTL_STORAGE_QUERY_PROPERTY
IoBuildDeviceIoControlRequest()
DeviceIoControl()
PhysicalDrive
ServiceName
PBDOWNFORCE_SERVICE
The executable file itself was packed with ASProtect, and was made with Microsoft Visual C++, with its wxWidgets.
The good news is, it does not contain a trojan.
TROJAN included at your service
ReplyOf course there isn’t, try to have a bit of common sense. Antivirus and security software obviously hates programs like these because they are essentially hacking tools.

ReplyAbout PB DownForce.
It is mentioned that It will spoof your hard drive’s serial number but temporarly. So you’ll need to spoof your hard drive’s serial every time you open the game and connect to that certain server you’re banned in order not to get tracked?
Hello,
PB Down Force just made my day…..Thanks a lot….You are awesome.
ReplyI’m trying to use PBdownforce on win 7 64 but I’m getting error: “communiction failed”. Any help on this ? Any other tool to spoof hdd serial on win 7 64 ?
ReplyAs stated in the article PBDownforce doesn’t work on 64-bit Windows, we couldn’t find any free tools that do.
ReplyPBdownforce asking for password to run.
ReplyIt’s written clearly on the download page.
ReplyAnother utility which allows changing of a volume serial number is “MiniTool Partition Wizard”, what’s more it changes the whole 32 bit long serial number, not only the last 16 visible bits (8 characters).
ReplySorry, my mistake – MiniTool reports Volume ID as a 8 byte (16 characters/64 bit) value, while other programs report only 4 bytes (8 characters/32 bits). Don’t know what is the leading 32 bits, but the last 32 bits is the same as reported by VOL utility.
Replyhello! PB downforce is very useful for me but can you please tell me how to use my own serials and macs? I mean… what is the standard format? because I fill the fields with original and new serial and it doesnt work. Thank you very much!
ReplyThank you very much for the info, I need to change my hardware id….

While playing with only cheats may seem like a good proposition, anti-cheat efforts are getting more and more sophisticated by the year, and you’ll have to counteract them if you want to continue hacking. After all, a game would get a bad reputation if it was filled with nothing but cheaters.
In fact, some people cheat so often and get caught so frequently that they factor the cost of buying a new game into their cheating expenses. While it used to be so simple, anti-cheat makers have gotten wise to this and they’ve moved on to the next level of banning you: banning your computer.
If you ban someone from a game (especially a free-to-play one), they can just create a new account and log back in. When you hardware ban someone, that anti-cheat program will detect when a known cheater’s PC is trying to access the game and it will block them off from it.
That brings us to the topic at hand: HWID spoofers. As with anything in the world of online cheating, it’s a constant battle between cheaters and anti-cheat developers innovating. An HWID spoofer will allow you to circumvent a hardware ban in a number of ways that we’ll be taking a look at shortly.
Even if two computers with otherwise identical parts have their HWIDs compared, they will be different because those parts were manufactured in different batches at varying times. This allows programs like anti-cheat software to determine the differences between the computers that you’re logging on with.
In fact, we use HWID locks on our cheat loaders so that our customers can’t upload our cheat loaders, allowing other gamers to pirate our products. As you can see, a computer’s HWID is a versatile identifier that is used for a lot more than just anti-cheat software.
As the name suggests, an HWID spoofer will allow your machine to spoof the ID of another computer. There are many reasons why someone may wish to spoof the HWID of their computer, and we’ll take a look at them in the following section.
If you get caught in one of these ban waves, or if you turn up your cheat settings too high and make it obvious that you’re using an aimbot, you may end up getting banned. If you’re extremely unlucky, you’ll end up getting hardware banned and you’ll find that your computer is no longer able to access the game you’ve played so much.
If you want to prevent this from ever happening, you’ll have to use an HWID spoofer to ensure that your computer’s real HWID is masked from the anti-cheat service that detects you. Keep in mind that you’ll not only be banned from the game that you’re caught on, but you may be banned on any other game using that same anti-cheat.
The other use case is if you’ve already been hardware banned and you want to keep using the same gaming PC to play, even if you’re not cheating anymore. In these cases, you’ll be able to dodge your hardware ban with a spoofer.
If there’s only one thing you’re going to consider about your HWID spoofer, it will have to be the games that it’s compatible with. Many would-be cheaters mistakenly think that an HWID spoofer will allow them to bypass all anti-cheat programs, but that’s simply not the case.
Most HWID spoofers will be designed to counter specific anti-cheat programs, so take a close look at the games that you can expect an HWID spoofer to work with. If you’re not sure if an HWID spoofer will work on one of your games, contact customer service and we’d be glad to discuss the matter further.
Another thing to account for when searching for the best possible HWID spoofer is whether or not it will be easy enough for you to use comfortably. Since HWID spoofers can be pretty complicated pieces of hardware, they’ll often involve a bit of work on the part of the user.
We try to ensure that our HWID spoofers are as easy as possible to use, as we believe that every gamer should have access to quality cheats, regardless of their level of technical proficiency with computers. Since many players using cheats are ex-console players who find it difficult to compete, they often don’t have the requisite technical prowess to deal with complex setups.
Need for Reformatting
If you think that using an HWID spoofer is going to be a simple matter, then that assumption probably went right out the window when you read the word “reformatting.” That’s right, to use an HWID spoofer on some games, you’ll have to reformat your hard drive, erasing everything on it.
This will create the clean slate that will be required to spoof your HWID, though it may only be required for certain games. Be sure to see whether or not you’ll have to reformat your hard drive if you wish to use an HWID spoofer in your game of choice.
However, even though we offer our spoofers for a low price, we make sure that our developers don’t compromise when it comes to the quality of their programs. After all, your gameplay experience is on the line and we want to provide the best possible enhancements to it because we’re gamers too.
We offer a range of different HWID spoofers that will allow you to mask your computer’s HWID across a wide range of games and anti-cheat providers. For example, our exclusive WinThatWar HWID spoofer is designed to work with the vast majority of the games that we provide cheats for.
We also have the SC HWID spoofer available, which is an alternative choice with different spoofing animations and support for various titles that would otherwise require reformatting if you were using the WTW spoofer. We encourage you to check out both of them and see which fits you best.
