Hi, I've trying to mod my Bios to unlock hidden settings but after disabling the Bios Lock I don't know what to do next so I ask if could you help me out.

Model: Acer Aspire 5 A515-56
Bios: InsydeH20 Rev 5.0 Setup Utility

(I've dumped my Bios with BACKUP_Tools.)

The Bios along other important files are down below

Bios and VARS are here down below. Had to send it in a separete comment because it was too big

I created a modding guide for this bios if anyone is interested or has the same problem.

Thanks to Sweet Kitten for unlocking my Bios and telling which edits need to be chnaged and as well as Dudu2002

Hello,

I have an ACER A515-56-73AP Laptop I'd like to finish unlocking the BIOS to access the extra Advanced menus. I followed this guide

and managed to successfully remove the BIOS Lock and flash it back.
Now I'm stuck and would greatly appreciate any help on unlocking extra advanced features.

Hello,

I'd like to request a BIOS unlock/mod for the Acer Aspire A515-56 (Intel i5-1135G7, UEFI InsydeH2O BIOS version 1.36). I am looking to unlock the following options:

- BD PROCHOT toggle (enable/disable)
- CPU Power Limit (PL1, PL2, IccMax, cTDP)
- CPU Core/Cache voltage offset (undervolting support)
- Advanced menu visibility (if possible)

I have attached my BIOS dump (created with FPT or AFU) for reference.

Current system details:
- Model: Acer Aspire A515-56
- CPU: Intel Core i5-1135G7 (Tiger Lake)
- BIOS Version: 1.36
- BIOS Type: InsydeH2O (UEFI)
- OS: Windows 11 x64

The BIOS is locked – I am unable to undervolt (MSR 0x150 blocked) and BD PROCHOT is always on. I have tested and RU.efi but write access is blocked. I am willing to flash modified BIOS via programmer if needed.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards, 
Artur
