Hello big brains
I know what you thinking - here comes another sorry sap with an HP bios problem!
I am attempting to get into more options on the BIOS as I have ordered an eGPU system to beef up the gaming potential of my laptop as I have the M.2 PCIe slot available and I'm just getting in a whole heap of trouble and fear I'm gonna brick my whole setup. I need to set the PCIe configurations as its currently only running at x1 speed despite it being a PCIe3.0 x4 capable of 8.0 GT/s. which I confirmed in HWiNFO64.
Had a rummage in the Hex Editor once I managed to pull the setup utility module but have reached a dead-end there as I just lack the knowledge.(Also due to most likely bricking my laptop.)
Annoyingly I can SEE the option in the code for Advanced settings but they just seem to be suppressed in and disabled:
Thus, bigger brains are needed.
I am more than happy to tip $10 via PayPal if anyone can rise to the challenge!
HP Pavilion Pro 14-BF153sa
Intel Core i7 (8th Gen) 8550U
12GB DDR4, 256GB SSD
NVIDIA GeForce 940MX 4GB (eGPU 1060 6GB ready for Cyberpunk baby!)
Windows 10 Home 64
SP105944 BIOS F.46 Rev.A
BIOS DUMP
AIDA64 Report
Config.log and BIOSsettings.log
Any help at all will be greatly appreciated.
