Hi friend,
SecureFlash (RSA protection) avoid to reflash modded Bios so We have to look for another way !
First of all have You tried to use a SLP Marker to enable Slic 2.1 ?

Look here :

So better is to get Marker enabled before and not have to write new one, then do a
Remove Whitelist on a complete Bios Backup !
It's your laptop based on AMD CPU ?
Let me know

Use this tool run It as Administrator and upload here the result file :

Unfortunatelly, I have not enough experience in this theme. Can you please write here docs to read about this. Thanks!

Can You post the error You get when You change the WiFi Card or upload a Screen Shot of error !
I have looked for It but seems there isn't into Bios Modules !
For SLP Marker I haven't any experience !
