Hi
I have a nice NB Lenovo M5400 (model 20281) with Phoenix UEFI BIOS J6ET58WW (2.03 ) and GeForce GT 740M (GK208M) GPU. Unfortunately, you can only change the frequency limit by editing it in BIOS, no one other software way to do this. +135 MHz in offset is really too small for a perfectly good cooling system (IMO) in M5400.
I have seen the modification only on other laptops. I hope there are people here who are not indifferent to this problem. Please mod this BIOS and increase Base Clock Offset from stock +135 MHz to +600 MHz (I know these are unrealistic values, but at least it will not be a bottleneck as it is now).

Detailed information:
NB model: M5400 (20281) by Lenovo
BIOS version: J6ET58WW (2.03), latest. Get it there: https://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc...et58ww.exe
GPU: nVIDIA GeForce GT 740M (GK208M) with 2GB DDR3 (Hynix) 64bit
See more on screenshots and let me know if more information is needed.

I will be very glad to help and I think it may be necessary not only for me.

Hello! You can post here your bios dump. Use backup tool, run them as Admin and upload the results.
Thanks for your feedback!

Had to spend a little time unpacking the exe and then I finally got to results.rar Smile

P.S. I got several errors, as I understand the script went through the versions until I got to the one that the BIOS considered.
