Hello kryalix,

I will take a look at your BIOS image to see what can be unlocked.

Hello

Your BIOS mod is complete! The BIOS mod archive can be found at the bottom of this post.

I have unhidden the hidden INTEL Menu, which contains a vast array of settings, such as VT-x and AHCI.

Precautions/Disclaimers:
Quote:Please remember to take proper precautions when flashing your BIOS. Even if the BIOS image is safe, the flashing process can still fail. Make sure that [if applicable] your notebook is fully charged (100%), that the power adapter is properly connected, and that the chance of a power outage occurring is as minimal as possible. Do not interrupt the flashing process. If possible, it is good practice to have a working CRISIS recovery disk handy when flashing your BIOS. Use the flashing instructions for your particular computer brand. DO NOT DO ANYTHING UNNECESSARY!!!

I take absolutely NO responsibility for ANY damages that may occur to you, your computer, your personal belongings, your neighbor's cat, or any other personnel or equipment as a direct or indirect result or consequence of your, or any one else's, use or misuse of any of the files that are in this archive at the present or at any time in the past or the future. You assume full responsibility for any damages or inconveniences that may occur by choosing to flash, or otherwise use or misuse, this image or any of the other files within this archive.

Have fun! Smile

Please remember to post the results of the BIOS flash!

Can you please provide more information as to how I can proceed from flashing my BIOS using the file you've provided? (I'm a newbie)

I will follow up with a report as to how it went, successful or not and keep my word on giving a generous donation to help support your team.

Thank you for reading this thread and reply! I look forward to hearing more from you.


Edit*

I did some research in the Phoenix forums and found that I need to format a USB device using an "HP USB Tool" I tried doing so and so far it's corrupted two of my USB's.

The walkthrough of what I tried to follow (which didn't work, hence the corrupted USB's) can be found on this link:

Hello kryalix,

Sorry for the delays. I have been busy over the past few days.

I am going to extract the Windows installer, modify that BIOS image, and repack it. This will provide an alternative to the method that is failing right now.

Hello kryalix,

I have modified the BIOS file within the BIOS flashing application supplied by Sony. Run this application to flash your BIOS.

Hey [b]Sml6397,[/b]

I've ran the executable file that you've posted and it's given me an error as shown in the image attached below.

[Image: 2el5qv7.jpg]

I am running Windows 10 (64-bit) if it makes any difference.

I've also tried running it as admin.

Am I supposed to put this file in the original Gateway 1.26 BIOS files?

Thank you for the super fast response, I greatly appreciate it!

Edit*

I've figured it out by replacing the original with the file that you provided. I'm going to donate now as promised.

Just last question though, is there no way to unlock options for GPU or RAM?

Thank you again for your efforts.



Edit*

Hello kryalix,

Thank you for donating to BIOS-Mods! Smile

And thank you for telling me about my broken donate link. I have fixed the issue.

I did not find any graphics settings other than the ones currently in the INTEL Menu.
