Bios Mods -The Best BIOS Update and Modification Source

Hello all,

First off som laptop info:
- Asus U36SG (actually a U36SD laptop, just replaced mobo with a U36SG mobo) i7 2640m
- Bios ver 204 link to bios
- RAM - Corsair 2x8GB DDR3 SODIMM-204p 1333MHz (these 16GB work with the U36SD mobo)

According to Asus specs, the U36SG is capable of 8GB ram max, although the Intel specs indicate its capable of 16GB ram max. Using the mentioned ram in info, the laptop only boots when one 8GB block in inserted.

So my request/question is, can the bios be modded to allow the 16GB ram?



Many thanks in advance ofcourse and best regards.



UPDATE1:
So I managed to unlock the bios through guides here on the forum and MDL forum. Credits go to the various users that posted info, without I would never have figured out how to enable the following:
- Chipset menu tab is enabled
- All of the options enabled via AMIBCP

I have tested this on my own laptop and working fine.

Sadly unlocking those options, doesnt solve my initial problem. Im guessing the issue is a hardware bottleneck.

Hey there...how did you manage to unlock the BIOS? I tried installing the unlocked one that you posted, but WinFlash said that it is of a previous date than the one currently installed. Can you help me in that matter, please?
