Hi, I want to unlock a tab AMD CBS on laptop Acer Nitro 5 AN515-43, I have a programmer CH341a and everything I need for the write bios. (clip SOIC-8, adapter 1.8v) At the moment I was able to unlock all hidden menus(advanced + power), with the exception of AMD CBS, AMD PBS. Below I attach the original dump taken by the programmer, and also already modified, where I could not unlock the tab I needed. I hope for your support. Thank in advanced.
I already dumped the file with a ch341a flasher and checked it. the question was rather what to do with the dumped file. the bios is made by insydeh20 and Acer. I already opened the file with UEFItool, but i have no idea what to look for or what tools to use in order to unlock the ‘advanced’ settings tab. Neither can i find any tools or guides on how to unlock this next to ‘asking people’.
@Sweet_Kitten Unfortunately, i put the dumped backup file on an usb stick and on the laptop of my girlfriend. she took everything in a bag (plus the flasher) right now to her parents for 3 days.
You have nothing left to do but this. I am here, so you can ask me to unlock bios for you.
If i can get my hands on it, would you be so super kind and unlock it for me? That would be awesome.
I am more eager to learn how to unlock bios images myself too, since that would give me freedom and control over more laptops i would own in the future and expand possibilities like Hackintosh, undervolting, ram timing, ic settings, etc. I am trying to find more information by myself but all these bios tools are either deleted/hidden or DMCA’d by the owner companies, and some stuff these companies do is just plain ridiculous (e.g. whitelists) and sometimes outright frustrating. I remember successfully opening the dumped .bin file and seeing options like XHCI or csm, but then getting my hopes stricken down after i discovered that i have no clue on how to enable them. In the meanwhile, i will continue on researching and hopefully gather enough to unlock some features. Hell maybe i can help people on this forum too.
