mod for 5741Z?
Yes, I do, so I can allow more dedicated memory for the iGPU, but... I tried the G bios on my Z just now and it works, tho there is still no toggle for dedicated memory. All I had to do is change the ROM's name to match the original one and it flashed even through windows.

Yes, I did and it works fine, but I am still missing the dedicated memory toggle for the iGPU.

When the BIOS will be installed, set User Access Level to Full. Find IGD - DVMT Pre-Allocated in Advanced > Video Configuration.

Everything went fine, the bios is flashed and working, unlocked a ton of new settings including the ability to dedicate a little more memory, but when I got to windows after saving the settings in bios the detected allocated memory is still 128MB. Is windows displaying it wrong?

With the moded bios it has changed from displaying 128MB to displaying nothing, the field against Video Memory is emtpy.
