<![CDATA[Bios Mods - The Best BIOS Update and Modification Source - Unlocked Phoenix BIOSes]]> https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/ Thu, 07 May 2026 09:16:02 +0000 MyBB <![CDATA[HP SP52477 BIOS - No whitelist and unlocked BIOS (READ BEFORE USING!)]]> https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-HP-SP52477-BIOS-No-whitelist-and-unlocked-BIOS-READ-BEFORE-USING Tue, 09 Jan 2024 18:50:35 -0500 k24a1]]> https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-HP-SP52477-BIOS-No-whitelist-and-unlocked-BIOS-READ-BEFORE-USING
I have decided to combine a couple of existing mods available for select HP dv6000 and dv9000 models with the nForce 630M chipset (Board ID is 30D1! do NOT flash on any other board!) The mods in question were Ahmed Hossam's SP52477 unlocked BIOS, and Camiloml's NoWL BIOS. I simply just imported TEMPLAT00.ROM from the unlocked BIOS into the NoWL BIOS, so now we have the best of both worlds. I also wanted to clarify this as I didn't really do anything other than repacking things.

Unlocked BIOS allows you to change settings otherwise locked out. A no-whitelist BIOS allows you to use any WiFi card, so long as your computer is compatible with it. There actually wasn't a BIOS image with both of these modifications done, so I combined these two to give your system the best of both worlds. You can do all sorts of crazy things in the setup menu. Changing RAM clock speeds, adjusting power management, and SO much more. Some things may not work as the original BIOS was not intended to call certain functions.

KNOWN ISSUES:
-AHCI does NOT work! This is in the menu... for some reason. Enabling it causes the BIOS to not detect your SATA drives. HP likely did not implement this as AHCI on these older nForce chipsets is known to be considerably buggy. It is also likely that the hardware itself is not entirely capable of such, either.
-Some WiFi cards may have issues on certain machines. Someone reported issues with the Intel 5100 card, and another person got a 3160 card to work. YMMV!

HOW TO FLASH:
-Rename either 30CFF34A.WPH or 30CFF34B.WPH to BIOS.WPH and move it to either SWinFlash or WinPhlash64 (depending on your operating system's architecture.) Yes, there's probably an easier way to do this, but this is what I do. There's also a bunch of extra batch files that are shared with both of the archives, likely relating to Phoenix BIOS commands for Windows/DOS.
-Simply use WinPhlash. I don't really need to explain this one.

Good luck to like, the one person who still has one of these old laptops downloading this. And it does work, specifically works great on a dv9610us. Not sure if anyone here really cares about hardware from this era anymore so I'm uncertain if this will be preserved on here or not... oh well.

What could I do for this?

In the Phoenix BIOS "System Setup" menu is a field "Audio Device:". I can not choose any options for "Audio Device:" as I can on other items (see attached image) in the "System Setup". I would guess that Siemens Nixdorf has castrated the BIOS.

This menu let's you select the PATA SATA pair for chipset sis 968, no matter what one selects, the bios reverts to 5513+1183 after saving and exiting, this means IDE + SATA in ide emulation mode.
AFAIK the 968 chipset is perfectly able of RAID and AHCI however maybe this menu I added doesn't really change anything in the bios.
I was wondering maybe there's a way to set the correct pair by hardcoding it in the bios with an hex editor, some bits maybe, hence forcing the IDE+SATA AHCI or IDE+SATA RAID mode.
Does anyone have an idea?

I never knew modding your bios was possible otherwise I would've done this years ago when I first got this laptop in 2009!! Anyways here's the link to download the phoenix bios v1.31: DOWNLOAD FROM HERE

Thank you so much for doing this guys! I really appreciate it! I wonder what new settings this will open up!

Here's a picture of the Main page on my BIOS. The video memory is greyed out. There is no graphics card on this computer though. I'm really hoping there is some way an option to slightly overclock it appears as well as a way to allow my DDR2 ram to work at 800 mhz because my bios underclocks it even though I have 800 mhz ram installed.

If you can unlock this bios for me I will send you $20 USD via paypal.

Is it possible to unlock more features for this Bios, maybe even "Memory Remapping" or "Virtualisation Technology" (VT or VT-x or Vanderpool as you wish to call it) ?

Because after some research, there is a bug in this Bios.
Example:

It is not possible to install or boot Windows 8 x32/x64 with 4GB Ram installed.
You need to remove 2GB Ram to Install and boot the OS.

This only happens on Windows 8/10.

To make this fast Notebook Futureproof, i would be really happy if someone can unlock more Bios features to tinker around.
Maybe this leads to an Solution.
