Hi, I would like help unlocking the Advanced and Power tabs in my Acer Aspire BIOS. I wanted to try to do it myself but I wasn't able to find the jump points using IDA. Using Andy's tool I was able to find the tabs in SetupUtility GUID 'FE3542FE-C1D3-4EF8-657C-8048606FF670_1490' and donovan6000's Universal IFR Extractor found the tab locations. After messing around for a few hours I figured it's time to get help from the pros. I have a HW SPI Programmer if needed.
