Hi friend,
can I ask which kinds of modifies You have done ?
I found . . . a big confusion ! You used a Slic 2.1 Bios Mod based and then You have modified
som extra Modules, but You have to modify this one FE3542FE-C1D3-4EF8-657C-8048606FF670_676.ROM
SetupUtility Module !

Here there are files to modify, look into EFI IFR txt file :

http://rghost.net/7QtQD5kjh

let me know

Ok a little IFR Lesson so You will help me !
We have to find all grayout and suppress if (Conditions) and midfy to let them sowed into
Tabs !
Grayout is visible but not oddable option
Suppress if not visible and not moddable on condition option

So all these conditions have to be changed int this way . . .

0xFE82 Grayout If: {19 03 00}
0xFE85 Variable 0x85[1] equals 0x2 {12 07 85 00 01 02 00}
0xFE8C Variable 0x86[1] equals 0x1 {12 07 86 00 01 01 00}

We have to change into

0xFE82 Grayout If: {19 03 00}
0xFE85 Variable 0x85[1] equals 0x2 {12 07 85 00 01 FF 00}
0xFE8C Variable 0x86[1] equals 0x1 {12 07 86 00 01 FF 00}

these conditions have to be changed int this way . . .

0xFEB4 Suppress If: {0A 03 00}

Ok a little IFR Lesson so You will help me !
We have to find all grayout and suppress if (Conditions) and midfy to let them sowed into
Tabs !
Grayout is visible but not oddable option
Suppress if not visible and not moddable on condition option

So all these conditions have to be changed int this way . . .

0xFE82 Grayout If: {19 03 00}
0xFE85 Variable 0x85[1] equals 0x2 {12 07 85 00 01 02 00}
0xFE8C Variable 0x86[1] equals 0x1 {12 07 86 00 01 01 00}

We have to change into

0xFE82 Grayout If: {19 03 00}
0xFE85 Variable 0x85[1] equals 0x2 {12 07 85 00 01 FF 00}
0xFE8C Variable 0x86[1] equals 0x1 {12 07 86 00 01 FF 00}

these conditions have to be changed int this way . . .

0xFEB4 Suppress If: {0A 03 00}
0xFEB7 Variable 0x39[1] equals value in list (0x1, 0x2) {14 0B 39 00 01 02 00 01 00 02 00}
0xFEC2 Not {17 02}
0xFEC4 Setting: AHCI Option ROM Support, Variable: 0xE7[1] {05 09 E7 00 01 9F 00 A0 00}
0xFECD Option: Disabled, Value: 0x0 {09 09 15 00 00 00 01 00 00}
0xFED6 Option: Enabled, Value: 0x1 {09 09 16 00 01 00 00 00 00}
0xFEDF End of Options {10 02}
0xFEE1 End If {18 02}

We have to change into

0xFEB4 Suppress If: {0A 03 00}
0xFEB7 Variable 0x39[1] equals value in list (0x1, 0x2) {14 0B 39 00 01 02 00 FF 00 FE 00}

Hi BDMaster,

So do i only change the following from each "setting",


0xFE82 Grayout If: {19 03 00}
0xFE85 Variable 0x85[1] equals 0x2 {12 07 85 00 01 FF 00}
0xFE8C Variable 0x86[1] equals 0x1 {12 07 86 00 01 FF 00}

on all the grayouts do i add the FF on the two variables exactly like this ?


and on the suppress,

change the 01 and 02 wit hFF then FE

0xFEB4 Suppress If: {0A 03 00}
0xFEB7 Variable 0x39[1] equals value in list (0x1, 0x2) {14 0B 39 00 01 02 00 FF 00 FE 00}
0xFEC2 Not {17 02}
0xFEC4 Setting: AHCI Option ROM Support, Variable: 0xE7[1] {05 09 E7 00 01 9F 00 A0 00}
0xFECD Option: Disabled, Value: 0x0 {09 09 15 00 00 00 01 00 00}
0xFED6 Option: Enabled, Value: 0x1 {09 09 16 00 01 00 00 00 00}
0xFEDF End of Options {10 02}
0xFEE1 End If {18 02}


is that for all the variables settings ?

Sorry this is my first attempt to modd a bios and i want to make sure i do this correct.
