Hi, I would like to have EIST/DualIDA enabled on this BIOS
(or any menus/mods that would allow me to increase clock speeds -- either in-BIOS or combined with software such as Throttlestop)
Lenovo ThinkPad X200s
Intel Core 2 Duo SL9400 1.86GHz (estimated 2.13GHz~ with DualIDA)
Bios type: PHOENIX
Bios version: 6DET72WW (ver. 3.22-1.07) from 10/25/2012 (latest)
Bios download:
http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/...uj48u6.exe
I would greatly appreciate DualIDA as this 5 year old laptop is getting a bit outdated performance-wise. Cooling is more than sufficient to withstand DualIDA, so why not?
Thanks in advance.
Hello stere0123,
I will take a look at your BIOS to see what can be unlocked. I have never added DualIDA before, but I will see what I can do.
PS - If you really want to get life out of an old computer, install an SSD. I guarantee that it will do MUCH more than raising the clock speed on your CPU.
Hello stere0123,
I have never seen a BIOS like yours before. The image is structured so strangely... Could you take a screenshot of what appears when you first enter the BIOS please? I think that all of the "normal" parent menus are under a single menu that appears when you enter the BIOS.
This BIOS mod may take a while longer than normal BIOS mods as I want to explore what Lenovo did differently with this BIOS. I will keep you updated on the progress of the BIOS mod.

If it helps, I did some research prior to making this thread, and it appears somebody already did a mod on the 32-bit version of this BIOS on MDL:
- Forum post for 32-bit X200s BIOS mod with Whitelist removal and EIST:
http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads...post828601 -
But it is for the 32-bit BIOS which can't be flashed over a pre-existing 64-bit BIOS (which is what I have), so the 64-bit BIOS has to be re-modded for use with my system.
(6duj48
us download version is 32-bit, 6duj48
u6 download version is 64-bit)
64-bit BIOS is at
http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/...uj48u6.exe
32-bit BIOS is at
http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/...uj48us.exe
You might be able to compare Serg008's mod with one or both of those original BIOS' and see how the changes were made.
I will post pictures of the various BIOS menus shortly.
Hello stere0123,
I will apply Serg008's menu mods to the 64-bit image.
Oh cool, would this include both whitelist removal and EIST? (just like Serg's modifications)
Hello stere0123,
You will have to post a request in the Whitelist Removal forum with my modified BIOS image as I am not capable of removing whitelists (BDMaster and Sovem are the experts here).
I may be able to perform the EIST mod, but I cannot guarantee it.

Hi friend,
Bios is the only file that is always the same for all version 16 - 32 - 64 Bits !!!
Only flashing program have to be changed basin on S.O. version, so for your Bios You have only get the 64 Bits
version from Original Folder and replace to the 32 Bits, only preserve the PHLASH.INI file that contains modified data !!!
TP-6D - PHLASH.INI :
ImageFile=..\01B9000_WL.ROM
TP-7X - PHLASH.INI :
ImageFile=..\01B9100_WL.ROM

These are Bios Mod with .exe 64 Bits too :

Does this mean that I am able to flash the 32-bit BIOS mod over my 64-bit BIOS if the config files are changed? Right now if I try to flash even the unmodified 32-bit BIOS the installer fails with a "Driver error" where the 64-bit installer does not, it is an odd issue. Also I would assume a 64-bit BIOS should be matched with 64-bit OS for best compatibility/results?
