Thank you

run and report
Apparently not a lot of folks are following up. Just got the same laptop and updated my bios to match.
@Dudu2002 Downloading the file you posted, do both these exe files get run from the windows 10 desktop?
I have the Lenovo Y700 15ISK - BIOS Version CDCN52WW
I want to have the advanced menu unlocked.
I actually want Intel's Speed Shift Enabled.
Dissembling the BIOS i managed to find this
Code:
Setting: HardWare P states (HWP), Variable: 0x510 {05 91 41 10 42 10 2B 00 34 12 10 05 10 10 00 01 00}
0x5F25E Option: Disabled, Value: 0x0 {09 07 04 00 30 00 00}
0x5F265 Option: Enabled, Value: 0x1 {09 07 03 00 00 00 01}
Would falseclock method work?

Hello!
Bad news!All tests are failed!
Same laptop, same bios
https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-R...ed-BIOS-fd
successfully unlocked.your bios chips are rewrite protected, you need programmer to flash modified bios like Bownario did it.
Programmer must support these chips:
GD25Q64 ID:0xC84017 Size: 8192KB (65536Kb)
W25Q32BV ID:0xEF4016 Size: 4096KB (32768Kb)
Let me know if you want to continue.
I ran the tool in windows 10.. could that be the reason why all tests failed?
Are there 2 chips to be reprogrammed? usually a bios is in a single chip.
I would want to continue, but i am not sure where i would get the necessary tools.
And thank you for the reply.
All new laptops have bios chip's rewrite protection.
Tool detect 2 bios chips on your Mainboard.
You can by these tools at Ebay or Aliexpress store.Contact seller before order for supporting your bios chips by programmer

I have ordered the tools to flash the bios. will take ~2 weeks to ship.
So want to continue...
@Da Vinci Code .. how do i mod the BIOS?
I have the tools and i would like to learn how to mod it, cuz i would like to mod any future BIOS updates as well.
Although I know that bios flashing is write protected on this notebook I still want to ask if there is any way on knowing how Lenovo is limiting the speed of DMI connection (NVMe SSDs are limited to around 1600 MB/s, while they are faster than that nowadays). I'm willing to buy some tools if there is a way to change that.
Thanks for response in advance
More info on that topic:

I am interested to know too. Y700. Same issue.
I would also like to have the fixed option for graphics card. I wonder if there is a way to manually get a bios flashed with this update and swapped or maybe send the computer for this mod? I'm starting to feel i should get an HP and ditch this pile.
