Hello. I am looking into unlocking some features in the BIOS on my laptop. I did a bit of digging, and it looks like a simple hex edit should unlock the BIOS, but I am unable to determine what values I need to change. I am basically wanting to increase the dedicated video memory for my laptop. After looking, similar V5 laptops, after modifying the BIOS, are able to change this option. It should be in the hidden menus. I am just unable to determine what values I need to change. Or I could be completely mistaken, which could very well be the case.
Not sure how I can extract the BIOS image from the exe. I opened it in 7zip, and it doesn't have an obvious image file. Looks like it polls a server and pulls the image from Acer's servers. To be honest, I am completely lost. I have never modified any form of BIOS in my life. If anyone can help me out, I would really appreciate it. And of course, donation and everything.
