Hello all.
So for one of the new requirements for Broadwell in OS X El Capitan, it requires at least 96MB of DVMT-prealloc. I simply don't have that. Windows 7 says 64MB but it's not telling the truth. So when I boot into OS X I pass the assertion and a panic is raised. I'd rather not rely on faulty kext patches and would rather solve it at the root of the problem.
So, with Aptio V Bios Version: A06, how can I unlock the advanced menu to raise the DVMT value or find some other way to raise the DVMT value on BIOS?
Note: I have tried EFI SHELL and it gives me an offset error when I try to change the DVMT to the correct value.
I will even pay for whoever helps me out. Just let me know, guys. I'd love to have OS X working and this is the only thing stopping it.

I ran BACKUP_Tools12 as administrator in Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit but after the second line it froze the computer. I'm not sure why that happened, but here is the output from Universal Bios Backup:
Ok run It manually do do this procedure :
Unpack the tool, then rename the folder like "tool" and copy It into C: HD root place !
Then open Command Promt with Admin Rights (CLI window C:\), and execute these
comands from CLI window (hit the enter key after any command) :
cd \
cd tool
GO.BAT
It will create a result file or into the folder or on desktop, then upload It here
Let me know

How do I unpack the tool? We are talking about BACKUP_Tools12.exe right? This cannot be extracted using 7zip.
Use this tool too following this procedure :

Then open Command Promt with Admin Rights (CLI window C:\), and execute these
comands from CLI window (hit the enter key after any command) :
cd \
cd tool
fptw -d bios.bin -bios
(or fptw64 for x64 bit)
It will create a bios.bin file into tool folder then upload It here
Let me know

I have followed the steps above and was successful. Here is the output of fptw64:

Use WinRar v.5.20 or above !!!
It's important the result file to see if your Eeprom Chip is unlocked !
Let me know

I have done as you said and ran GO.BAT (START.BAT in my case) and it still froze. I took a picture of where it froze and attatched it below.
It did drop some files, however. Maybe they will be of use. I have included the generated files below.
