Hi
I've got a VAIO SVE1712C5E that I also hope to to enable a real advanced tab, but the platform differ from that one.
I have just bought it and my bios is in version R0160D6 and load a stock windows 8.
After digging in with Phoenix tool (v2.12) I wasn't able to find the platformsetupadvancedDxe module.
I have compared this unlocked SVE1711 bios with mine by opening it with phoenix tool, but can't find again the setup advanced module ...
I also find "Pmpatch" and tried it : it worked fine with patching the powermanagement module, but when I tried to flash the modded bios.bin with the official tools, I then got a InsydeH2o secure flash warning on reboot, telling me that the firmware image was invalid, meaning that in my case there is a signature check.
So I come with some questions :
Did the modded bios of that thread as been signing after ?
What string do I have to search for enable my advanced menu ?
My platform need to be unlocked with the pinmod trick to allow flashing ?
Thanks for your replies ;-)
