[REQUEST] Acer Aspire E5-523(G) BIOS Unlock
#1
Hello everyone.

I've been looking for days to enable AMD-V aka Virtualization on my PC. I've updated to the latest BIOS given by Acer themselves (Insyde v1.09), but couldn't find an option to enable it.

I'm requesting a BIOS that will work on my PC and will let me enable Virtualization.

BIOS Version/Date : Insyde Corp. V1.09, 8/3/2016
SMBIOS Version 3.0
BIOS Mode UEFI

If I Could also get installation steps, that'll be great. I'm new to this whole BIOS modifications thing and I don't wanna ruin my new PC just to enable this f-ing Virtualization.

P.S : Yes, my CPU (Processor AMD A9-9410 RADEON R5, 5 COMPUTE CORES 2C+3G, 2900 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)) does support Virtualization. Even Securable tells me that YES, I can.

Already tried going to the "turn feature on and off" ad tried enabling Virtualization.

So I guess flashing a BIOS with the option is the last working way to do so.

Or is it ? If you know anything that could help me avoid flashing a custom BIOS just for Virtualization/AMD-V, and just enable it, that'll be great !

Just looking for a BIOS Mod that will give access to the hidden advanced menu so that I can enable AMD-v/Virtualization.

First time attempting BIOS mod, so instructions would be great. Or just pointing me in the direction of instructions would be just as great.

BIOS is InsydeH20 V1.09, Rev 5.0 (Attached)

the flashing of the modded BIOS might not work because the recovery checks the signature of the BIOS file.

However, you might be able to enable AMD-V using this method (needs to be adapted): http://www.geektech.co.nz/how-to-unlock-...enovo-y700
This method requires Windows as a system as the necessary tool is only available for Windows.

First, you will need the tool: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4NHIBM...RtQXM/view
Extract the archive and go to the folder with the extracted files.
Then, you need to open an administrative command prompt in that folder (google it if you don't know how).
Execute the command from step 1 of the linked guide in that command prompt (H2OUVE.exe -gv vars.txt).
After that, you'll have the file "vars.txt" in that folder.
You need to upload this file, so that I can make the change.

For reference, here's the EFI-table with available settings for this notebook: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4NHIB...WI4LW14bE0
And here's the setting that needs to be changed:
0x1C40B             Setting: SVM support, Variable: 0xEE {05 91 54 02 55 02 54 00 34 12 EE 00 00 10 00 01 00}
0x1C41C                 Option: Disabled, Value: 0x0 (default) {09 07 27 00 10 00 00}
0x1C423                 Option: Enabled, Value: 0x1 {09 07 28 00 00 00 01}

Hello Sir, may I ask you to modify my file. It would be for an Aspire E5-523
