Bios Mods -The Best BIOS Update and Modification Source

This is for a Winbook tw801. I was wondering if there was a hidden Advanced menu to unlock or any other goodies that can be enabled.

Hi friend,

Any luck in opening up this BIOS?

@Sml6397 Any chance this is possible? I know its old but with Windows 11 not supporting 32-bit and the EFI being limited to IA32 only, CSM boot or 64-bit EFI support would be useful since the CPU is 64-bit...

I patched the executables to avoid some errors.
Let's see if that'll help.

WinFlash64:
switch case 101 (version check) - fffc0370 +2c7
switch case 142 (DC power check) - fffc70db +1ef
Winflash32:
switch case 182 (version check) - 00406ac6 +26d
switch case 223 (DC power check) - 00406b7a +1b9

Let's see if that'll help.

Now with auto-flash mode enabled. So no need to choose the BIOS file manually.

Running WinFlash32.exe without any further apprehends gives the same error as before, (Rollback flash is not allowed in connected standby systems), and with "/ipf bios ec /file BIOS.cap" is gives a syntax error that the original unmodified one did not.

The FLASH.bat that uses SCTFlash gives error 182 still but instead of listing it as due to older/current version, it simply states "Flash too exits with error code: 182"

I really appreciate your time doing this!

Code 182 indicates an error that the BIOS image is equal or older. It seems that I did not manage to bypass this check and the text just changed. This is coding madness. For a meanwhile I had a thought that everything will be easy with this BIOS, but in fact I'll have to work hard on this.

Oh my, i'm sorry, i'll happily send a donation your way if you do manage to crack this one!
