Ok friend, that command read as -d parameter is read - bios the bios region, then the file name biosregmod.bin … but if the parameter was -f , then it means flash , write …
Please make again a result file to check the bios backup and Eerpom unlocked … i will reply quickly, i didn’t set any password and normally it needs to
disable secure boot and tpm and bios pwd … we can remove it flashing the bios backup again or using some sites that give the unlock code too …
but it was wrong that you set a bios administrator password !

it almost worked the options are now available but the fan control options are useless they dont do anything. if they’re not controlled by the bios what are they controlled by?

24

So you unlocked it ? can you upload the Bios Menu Tabs photos to see the unlocked ones and the Fan options, may be there are others into EFI IFR …
Let me know

Regards

P.S. many thanks for the shots

27

Please check thermal configuration and especially platform thermal configuration where the fan controls are. Almost nothing works there.

28

I changed the CPU power limits in the BIOS… even that’s not sticking. What is going on?

Hi Rog195, this bios is weird , but it’s nothing to do further … try to ask to Taro6987 …

@BDMaster thanks for all the help. I’ll do some research and see what i can find.

31

Thanks to BDMaster I’ve managed to get my BIOS unlocked but none of the functions work any ideas what is going on?

32

@Rog195 :
I have merged your recently started threads with this already existing thread, because it doesn’t make sense to start new threads about the same topic.

@BDMaster :
Are you able to help?

33

Thanks.

@Fernando

I unloacked that bios and made others two of them, so suggested to ask to the users who have that pc and i unlocked it
about the bios settings and working as i cannot do more than this …
Regards

35

@BDMaster you did a fantastic job and I thank you for it. I only ask others to take a look at this problem.

@Rog195

There are not so many "other" BIOS modding experts here, who may read your request and help you.
Good luck!

Hi everyone,
It has been some time, I finally gave up and went out and bought the CH314a programmer because I thought maybe the actual BIOS chip(Winbound 25q80ev) might be reporting false info or something.
Anyways I used the programmer to extract the BIOS file but the file is only 1MB and the UEFITool reports some errors when I try to open it with it.
Any ideas as to what is going on is appreciated.
Thanks.
