It's running vista and is running BIOS Version R0190J3

I'd be ok with modding the BIOS myself, just can't find it on the web.
If not, is there a recommended method for saving the current BIOS so I can mod it?

Thanks!

HP NP195AAR-ABA e9140f M2N78-LA Motherboard Pavilion e9140f 5.08 BIOS

Trying to fiddle around.
Already searched and found these threads.

I have same board, but Violet3 version.
Looks identical.
I wanted to flash 5.22 or even better 5.29 on it, but the latest version of AFUWINx64 that will run at all on it is 4.40.

I get a ROM file ID mismatch. Which is understandable, but unless someone tells me it's a go to check "Do Not Check ROM ID" I am stuck.

I have uploaded the latest BIOS I could find on HP's servers that had the same ROM ID.

Today I open HWiNFO64
[Image: a7ul8vmcczvvgwycdel7hrztemq.png]
As you see Turbo Boost is red. CPU (Xeon 2650v3 QEYN ES) has 2500 Mhz TurboB. support.
I didn't find Turbo Boost in Bios Options...
So, as I think, problem in motherboard (ASUS Z10PA-D8)

As you can read, this motherboar has 2 sockets (two CPUs)
Can you help me?
I need to know where is problem (motherboard or CPU)
How can I add TurboBoost support?

Possible I7 in a S20 MOBO

$

0
Hello to all Big Grin , I am somewhat new to bios modding so I'm sorry if I make any mistake while asking this question.  So I have a Lenovo S20 with a 71Y8820 mobo and I heard, in theory, that it would be possible for upgrading the Xeon Processor to a Core i7. However I am aware that the bios does not support the CPU so it would not work. So my question is, would it be possible in using the processor through modding the bios or is there just overall a missing important component for that type of CPU to run in the computer. 
I have also checked the Socket Type and can verify the i7 could fit in my computer and that the TDW won't burn out the PSU.

Thank you for any help given. Smile

Help unlocking FSB on conroe865pe

$

Currently working on an OC bios for conroe865pe, so far I've been able to successfully add cpu microcode using mmtool, and I can look at the bios options and unlock hidden options using AMIBCP. However I've yet to find a way to unlock the limit on what FSB you can set. Currently it only allows you to set between 66-300 in bios, which it does 300 fsb easily. Would like to change the range on this setting so that it can be set up to at least 400 (this chipset has never been recorded to run above 350 so should be sufficient) however I'm not sure where to start. Could someone point me towards a program to adjust the range of this setting? AMIBCP seems to be mostly centered around what text is displayed in the bios without allowing to adjust the settings that it actually ties back to.

So all I needed was a download on this forum which has been lost on the wider web due to bit rot.  The mods here decided I need an account to download and even after I create a throwaway email and register and click the [censored] link I still have to wait 30 min for "full activation".  So since the mods decided to waste my time I am going to waste theirs. 

Here is a free registered account for you to post spam and create havoc.  Enjoy!

i am modding my thinkpad x230 tablet, and already have read the bios and gotten it modded (chip # mx25L3206E.  My ch341a software was deciding that the chip was not connected only when I was most sure it was.  After reading some guides, i isolated pin 8 and that's what got me here. I used the ch341a software to try to write with pin 8 isolated, and it cant for some reason.  If I bring back pin 8 it still has the old issue.  do i have a wrong voltage?  is my programmer broken? 

Thanks in advance!

HP t730 Thin Client needs Setup Password to access BIOS

$

Hello forum,

I'm new to system building and I'm learning everyday...

Here's the story: I bought a t730 Thin Client (without an OS) brand new still in the box, but from an eBay'r... I know... mistake #1.

I thought I did my homework and really checked to be sure the unit was new and in the unopened original packaging before purchasing. When I received it, sure enough it was still sealed in the original box. I opened it up and it all appeared new and un-disturbed. Everything was there. Plastic wrap, documentation, mouse, keyboard. Looks legit to me.
 
When I booted it up for the first time, immediately it launched into something called eLux (some kind of hardware-independent operating system for cloud computing environments). So that prompted me to try to access the BIOS to change the boot order to re-image the SSD to my liking. I rebooted it and pressed f10  to access the BIOS and bingo... there was an "Enter Setup Password" message. I checked all the documentation in the box and there was nothing. I thought this was odd, so I called HP. They walked me through a series of troubleshooting tips but nothing worked. Eventually they recommended I return it from where I bought it because they could not assist. I reached out to the eBay'r I purchased from and of course they will not accept the return... it's now an opened box. I'm at the end of my wits dealing with this thin client. This was supposed to be a simple build... not a massive headache!

My goal for the t730 was to build a pfSense router... but without BIOS access, I cannot update the bios to accept my 4 port NIC and make other changes like boot order, device config and password options.

I've tried the following (multiple times) according to HP's troubleshooting guide, Resetting the Setup and Power-on passwords by following the instructions of pages 49-50 of the troubleshooting manual (http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c05348283).

I've tried all the default passwords for AMI, HP, HP/Compaq... Still nothing....

Specs:

AMI 2.17.1246
HP L43 v55.08 (00.01.12 Rev.A)

Can someone recommend a solution? Any insight you can provide is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading!

LG Gram z980, touchscreen option.

Sorry for my poor english. I hope you can understand what i say.

I'm trying to replace a LG GRAM z980's normal screen to a touchscreen. I use the original touchscreen panel of the touchscreen-edition of the laptop. According to my review, all editions of the laptop are using the same motherboard, just different in screen, ram and etc.

The touchscreen panel can display successful, but its touch function doesn't work. I got an HID I2C error code 10 in Windows Device Manager, it says the device cannot start.

I've tried all software way to fix it but never works. So I guess it might be a bios problem, maybe the bios detects my laptop is not a touchscreen edition, so it turns the touchscreen off.

So is there any possible to mod the bios to fix the problem?

Thank you so much.

Thinkad X1 Extreme TDP Limit change

$
0
0
Hi I was wondering if it's possible to change the TDP limit for the i7-8750H inside the Thinkpad X1 Extreme from 80C to around 95C when Hyper-V (and VT-d) is enabled.
More details here: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-X-...-p/4339151
Apparently some kind of "Embedded controller" keeps resetting the setting the MSR_TEMPERATURE_TARGET  register to 0x14 instead of the usual 0x03 or so every 5 secs. While it's possible to reset it from within LINUX, it needs to be done repeatedly every 5 secs. If Hyper-V is enabled under Windows 10, it's not possible to change, because the kernel suddenly does not have access to that register. Hence the request to modify the BIOS.

Related questions: assuming someone can do this change in a professional way,
1. Will it void my warranty? Is it provable that I have flashed a custom BIOS, even if I revert to a stock BIOS later (see question below)?
2. After flashing a custom BIOS, is it possible to upgrade to a newer 'stock' bios?
3. How much for this work + unlocking the advanced settings (BTW: can anyone post a screenshot to see what is in the advanced section - if it's of any interest for me). I do have the necessary eq to DUMP the BIOS, although haven't done it yet.

Thanks.
