Hello, can anybody help with whitelist removal of Lenovo s540 bios?
I found few old posts with answered requests for this model, there is no confirmation that it works, and all links are dead.

this is the newest bios:
https://download.lenovo.com/pccbbs/mobiles/gpuj16ww.exe

I tried to folow the steps here to make it by myself:
http://sbo99.org/threads/20223-Remove-wh...post338719
but there is no BIOSCODx.ROM files in my unpacked bios and Endeer's phnxpatch says "no cydwin1.dll".

I would appreciate any help.

Acer Extensa 7630 ez Phoenix Bios

$

0
Hello guys,

I have an acer extensa 7630 ez with a very Strange MotherBoard called Acer Monserrat2 (never see a post about this MB). This laptop runs with an Intel CPU Pentium T4300 (Penryn core). He is very slow so i would like to replace it by a Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T9500 (SLAYX): http://ark.intel.com/fr/products/33918/I...SB?q=t9500

The chipset of my MB is an intel GL40 and should support this processor (http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/...9/page-24) cause it's the same core (penryn), same bus speed 800 Mhz and same thermal design power (35 watts). So at first sight, no reason to have hardware compatibility problems but what about the bios?

The bios installed for my MB is a Phoenix one version 3821 (see in attachment). I am not sure this Bios can support this new cpu and acer gives absolutely no support about. Maybe i need to unlock something in the bios or to add the microcode of the new processor.

So my questions are:
1. Can i use the new cpu t9500 with this current bios? Thanks to acer, i have to disassembly nearly all my laptop to change the cpu. So i would like to be sure or at least very confident it ll work before this operation.  
2. if i can't use the new cpu with the current bios, can you help me to modify my bios?

In advance thanks for your ideas, help and for the great job you achieve with this site.

Olivier

ps: sorry for my English

Hello!
This guide may help users manually get modified bios for lenovo laptops between 2011 and 2013 years old with Insyde H20 bios.
Users who want get freebie mods, they must carefully read instruction before making changes.
As result, you not need wait until modders will complete your request, you not need donate them for work.
So let's begin.
1.Run this tool as Admin
https://www.sendspace.com/file/x64ra8
and go to results.rar
Note.This tool not works on win10 shell.
2.Unpack results.rar and find file with *.bin extension.
This file may contain x64 in name.
3.Download Andy's phoenixtool 2.66 ver and open *.bin file using that tool.
4.You can see in Log window decapsulated and unpacked modules from bios image.
5.Go to DUMP folder and create List type in view folder.
Choose ascend and you can find this file "FE354FE..ROM" (it has size more than 500 KB)
6.Copy this file to folder differ from DUMP.
7.Download any hex editor, i use HxD,it is free.
8.Open FE354FE..ROM with hex editor and search for these magic bytes which Dudu2002 aka Oleh use.
-"7C A6" for Lenovo Y50-70,S400,Yoga 2-13,G400s,G580,G780,G480 and etc.
-"78 7D" for Lenovo G500, G410,G510,B50-70,Z500 and etc.
-"74 5F" for Lenovo Z50-70,Lenovo Yoga 2 (76CN**WW versions),Lenovo Flex 2-15 and etc.
If you found one of these magic bytes, make following changes to complete unlocking process.
1)7C A6->7C 00;74 94->74 00;74 8C->74 00;74 86->74 00;74 80->74 00.
2)78 7D->78 00;74 6E->74 00;74 65->74 00;74 5F->74 00;74 59->74 00.
3)74 5F->74 00;74 55->74 00;74 4F->74 00.
Warning!Be sure that these magic bytes located near neighbor another magic bytes.One of these three chains must be located in two-three strings, no more.
9.Choose "Lenovo" brand in Manufacturer window of Phoenix tool.
[Image: 768f7b5fd4c8f335924121f8560ff66b.jpg]
Press "Advanced" button at end of Andy's tool, ignore waring message and press "OK"
10.Mark next checkboxes in Control Options to continue process:
"No Slic", "Allow user to modify another modules","Allow user modification of modules".
Press "Done" to continue
[Image: 09bdae2581b66810224fb5ffbf9e1389.jpg]
11.Now you have first window and may press "Go" button
12.Wait until "You can now make manual alterations..". dont press Ok, just copy modified FE354..ROM to DUMP folder and confirm overwrite.
[Image: ffdc72aa9f048399dfa03791eb2e3fa8.jpg]
13.Now you can press OK and wait until tool will complete new modded bios.
14.Enjoy!
Modder Oleh aka Dudu2002 knows only these magic bytes no more.He cannot unlock hidden settings for Acer, Sony,HP, Toshiba, Dell and other Lenovo because he's modding level is too low.
If these magis bytes can not be found, it means you have old or new Lenovo laptop.
Owners of new Lenovo laptops must have SPI PGM+Pomona SOIC8 clip to flash mod.

ami aptio 4 - no recovery mode

Hey,
i tried to recover my Dell Vostro 3350 after the UEFI was bricked.
however, i tried a trick found on the dell board:

Quote:Solution fo recovery bios Dell N5110

1. Download the latest firmware from the Dell support
2. Save the exe and create a shortcut with the following parameter: " /writehdrfile"
3. Start the created shortcut and it will create a n5110a11.hdr file rename the file to N5110.hdr
4. Create a shortcut exe file with the following parameter: " /writeromfile"
5. Start the created shortcut and it will create a n5110a11.rom file rename the file to DQ15A11.rom
6. Copy both file "N5110.hdr" and "DQ15A11.rom" to a FAT formatted pendrive's root folder
7. Remove the charger and Battery from the laptop
8. Plug In the pendrive
9. Press & hold END
10. Connect the charger (still hold END)
11. The notebook starts automatically and shows the recovery screen
12. Press enter and wait until finish the flashing
13. Press esc to restart
14. Hopefully problem solved
http://en.community.dell.com/support-for...t/19534608

Hold end and connect the charger will start my notebook.
but the bios wouldn't be read from my usb device.
i formatted it with the tool rufus. fat32, mbr, active partition.
i tried also different names e.g. dn13a10.rom (suggested by Andy P's SLIC tool) or dn13a10.hdr, 3350.hdr, 3350.rom, whatever.
didn't work.
Which module is responsible for this sort of recovery?
Any idea why it doesn't work on this device?
My UEFI: http://www.dell.com/support/home/gh/en/g...erId=99FC7

i flashed the sop8 chip manually with my spi flash device. 
it's working again.
but i want to prevent future errors - so i hope some someone can give me a hint.
have no desire to unscrew the hole device till the last [censored] again.

Kind Regards,
MaCXyLo

UEFI Bios modding to reveal hidden menus?

$
0
0
I've got an Asus Rampage IV extreme with the X79 chipset, I'd like to mod it so I can pick which PCI-E slot it looks at at POST for video. I've seen menus on my gigabyte boards (though only ones with integrated video now that I think about it) that let me pick Integrated, PCI-E slot 1, PCI-E slot 3, etc for the default. Is that something I might be able to accomplish with a bios edit for the Asus board (no onboard video)? I remember revealing hidden menus on old AMI and Award bios back in the day, long before UEFI came about, but I've not done it in years.

P5G-MX CPU support unlock

I just wanted to use this old Asus P5G-MX board as a testbench, but faced one problem - it boots only with conroe CPUs.
All others (I tried Celeron 331 and P4 640) shows this screen and turns of after few seconds:
[Image: YDhMdSL.jpg]

Okay, I thought that is microcode-related. So taken microcodes from P5GC-VM PRO BIOS from asus site (that supports all what I need), added some LGA771 microcodes (remember, this is a testbench, so I like it support as much CPUs as possible), updated all CPUID+Platform to the latest binaries, shrinked splashscreen to full black to fith all that microcodes to 512k image, made it, flashed it - and no changes, it still doesn't want to run with Cel-331 and P4-640. I think there is hardcoded CPUID check. Can somebody help me to override it? I'm not so experienced in ASM coding Sad

Error string and its ID in AMIbcp: http://i.imgur.com/In56Wpj.png

Bios image I have for now:
http://rgho.st/private/89tnCpr8p/6a9a86f...5e51b4845f

Yes, I understand that board have weak power source to run all CPUs, but I just want it to start and boot, load will depend on what CPU I will use.
And if something goes wrong - I have hardware programmer to reflash its BIOS. So I'm free to experiment with it.

[REQUEST] ASUSTek P5QL/EPU completely unlocked BIOS

$

Hello!
I'm currently running the latest version of my ASUStek P5QL/EPU motherboard BIOS, v.0408, last dated 2009/09/28, still available at the following address: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/sock...U-0408.zip
The BIOS works quite well, and seems to be fairly unlocked, yet since I started overclocking my Intel Q9400 CPU, I noticed it lacks some very important tweaks, such as complete controls over CPU Voltage (this is quite vital to optimize CPU temperature and avoid overheating). Angel
Having done a little research, I found out more detailed options on the matter seems to be available on ASUStek P5QL-E and P5QL Pro motherboards, which should be very similar to mine (for details and screenshots, see: http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/...5qle/4.htm - screenshot n. 22/69 on that page).
My question is: would that be possible to unlock the curent BIOS version to allow CPU Voltage customization and all other tweaks that are not currently available on my model?
Many thanks to anyone who can provide a solution. I managed to push my CPU to a quite stable 3Ghz, but my temperatures reach 75° under stress, and I feel some voltage optimization should lower them a bit. Big Grin

Hello,
I have been running into constant Memory Timing issues with this Asus its very well known.

I did see a thread on here about someone making a bios for them but i am such a beginner at Bios modding that i dont understand what they are saying to do. this is the thread. https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-A...ted?page=3

I would really appreciate a bios that is fully unlocked so i can change anything i need to including the cpu fan.

Thank you guys!!!!
