[Request] Aero 15 YD (11th gen intel) unlock

[joanne_L]

Hello! I was wondering whether it would be possible to unlock the bios on my Aero 15 YD? I'd like to be able to change the CPU voltage offset and enable XMP/change RAM timings. I can get into grub, and I've attached the backup of the bios. Thanks for your help!

It worked! thanks so much. I've been able to undervolt the cpu, although the I'm not too sure I understand the memory submenus. Do you know if xmp is enabled with the enable overclocking option?

1. It look like great~

2. This menu structure is seems different with before , go into Chipset >> System Agent (SA) Configuration >> Memory Configuration >> Memory Overclocking Menu >> Memory profile ,you can choose xmp profile or manually adjust memory settings.

That works- looks like I'll be able to use some good ram in here now    . Not too confident in the memory it ships with's OC abilities lol. It comes with some 3200 MHz cl 22...

are you able to resend the updated bios?

1. I  can't because the mod is for specific devices ,so you have to make a  bios dump from your laptop. If the bios veriosn of your laptop is FBxx please going to step2 ,if it's FExx you may need a spi programmer.

2. First do a test ,download this then unpack folder EFI to usb stick then reboot. Boot the usb stick as uefi mode ,if you can access to Grub shell successfully ,then we can contiune the bios modify process. And make a bios dump with this tool then attach the file.(Run dump.bat as administrator)

Just picked up some XMP ram over the holiday and didn't realize that AERO is worse than modern Thinkpads on bios options. 
At least there's no whitelist. 
Attached is my bios dump using your instructions. Please let me know if you can modify it and give me the unlocked bios FB07.
Thanks.

Thanks for the mod genius239. Works great, can undervolt and can use xmp profile now.

Remember to turn on CPU overclock menu to get the XMP settings to stick.

Again, props to genius239 for the great mod.
