Modded Bios

[ahumphers91]

Where can I get a Modded Bios for my laptop?

 

[Shadow703793]

You can't. There are VERY VERY few modded BIOS out there. Most of them are just to allow for OEM activation with Vista/7.

 

[ahumphers91]

So there's nothing I can do to get into my cpu settings and such through bios?

 

[Shadow703793]

^ Nope. There isn't anything you can do to "unlock" the BIOS.

 

[ahumphers91]

I found one. Working on it right now.

 

[Shadow703793]

^ Good luck, but your chances of success are virtually zero.

If it does not work, you may have to say bye-bye to the laptop.

 

[Shadow703793]

^ That is a very good possibility if there isn't a way to recover from a bad flash. On ASUS/Gigabyte board it is possible to recover from a bad flash, but I don't know if it's possible on a laptop.

there are some things I'm gonna try, HP and the Bios manufacturer wont give me the back door password to unlock the bios. I will figure it out. Thanks for the time on this thread guys.

 

[Shadow703793]

^ WHAT backdoor password?!? There isn't much you can do to UNLOCK the extended function of the BIOS (ie FSB,etc control). Are you trying to fix a locked (as in you can no longer get in) BIOS?

 

[ahumphers91]

No, just trying to unlock advanced bios settings.

 

[Shadow703793]

^ AFAIK, there isn't a "password" to unlock these kinds of things....
Can you explain what you mean by "Advanced BIOS settings"?

 

[ahumphers91]

Just advanced settings as in cpu multiplier, fsb etc.

 

[Shadow703793]

^ Highly unlikely. One reason is that the circuitry has to support it and second, writing a BIOS is no small business, seriously.

If you overclock a laptop, you have a little problem called heat, improving airflow is not an option either.
