[REQUEST] Acer Aspire E5-553(G) BIOS Unlock

[sunpuk745]

Hi,
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}

help me please

Hello friends,

I am completely new to both this forum and BIOS modifications, please excuse my naivety . 

I wish to enable AMD-V on ACER ASPIRE E-15 E5-553G-T9VU which is disabled by the vendor. There is no option to enable AMD-V on this machine's BIOS. 

I need AMD-V for university projects. 

Can anyone please guide me in this issue. I read the posts in this thread but they are of -1786 and my machine is -T9VU, are both of these same?
I think i'll need the steps from scratch.   

Looking forward to hear from you.

Many thanks.

Regards.

sorry bout that double posting. I read up a bit on the work you do here. I added my vars file to the original post. Your work is really helpful. Thanx.https://drive.google.com/open?id=16gpGRb...33LoY--vz1

Looking at the picture, I can see my vars file has the 000000E0 line, under setup. Does that mean that I change that 2nd the last "00" to "01" and save it with the H2OUVE tool?



Or is my bios different and requires something else.

Well I figured it out by reasearching. Tried it myself and got the amd v to work, but  Do you need to drop $$$ for help or something. Because I have research but don't have confirmation that the entire bios can be unlocked. It seems like it can but, what do I need to do.

Hi everyone,
I am trying to run memuplay on an Acer aspire E5-553G which could be enhanced by VT-x. However, the advance option is not available in setup utility. Could someone please help me enable the VT-x/ amd v so I can check out if it the virtual machine can run faster.

The device is running windows 10 pro
supports VT-x/AMD v

Thank you
