I need to unlock an option in my m15 BIOS to change the IGD display aperture setting for use in passing a virtualized GPU to several VMs on it. The current setting only appears to allow for 64M, which is apparently only enough for a single 1024x768 VM. There is no such option in the BIOS at the moment, but the hardware should support it.
BIOS file:

Looks like traditionally, alienware went with Phoenix... apparently this model went with AMI.
I would like to get an unlocked BIOS for the Alienware m15 Gen 1. I'm not rich or anything, but I do understand people need to eat, so I can pay something reasonable for the work. I'm not an expert in this field, but from what I can tell, it's an AMI. And, I'm not even sure if I'm looking into the right file. The ask is to be able to undervolt the CPU in the BIOS for better thermals.
Here is the link to the BIOS from Dell.
