@eknsibby - thanks for the BIOS image, but this doesn't show any settings, I need to see a few of the actual settings.

@Lost_N_BIOS What pictures do you need exactly. Sorry I'm kind of lost. Do you need pictures in each section like Security, Devices. Boot configuration?

Any is fine, but I need to see some settings/options. I don't need to see it all, just some BIOS settings, so I can see their exact names as used in the BIOS. Yes, pick a section that has settings in it, then grab an image of that page, that's all I need.

@Lost_N_BIOS Here is the link. thanks again for all your help.

Thanks @eknsibby - those images helped me fine all the modules I already found, so seems there is not hidden BIOS lock setting in a BIOS setting type format that we can use. So yes, I think you will have to take apart again to re-program, this time leave apart until you are sure we're done.

@Lost_N_BIOS Ok thanks a lot for your help so far. I should have time this weekend to take apart and flash.

@Lost_N_BIOS Hey I found a OEM copy of a full Bios.

@eknsibby - I could have done that for you, I don't get why you looked around for one, I mean what do you have in mind with that?

Ooh no I found one but they are charging $10 for it. I just thought we needed it to unlock the FD.
@Lost_N_BIOS

@eknsibby - You can unlock the FD in this and most any BIOS in few seconds via hex editor, no need to pay anyone for that. Flashing that unlocked FD to the board is the issue.
See here in section "B", second spoiler, second image in there where you edit lines 80-90, that is all you do to unlock FD in a BIOS for this system, that's the easy part

Oh ok. good thing I didn't pay for it. Well I will be flashing the chip this weekend and will report back to you on how everything goes. thanks

@eknsibby - Before you program anything in, be sure you get a verified and valid backup. Valid as in opens in hex editor and make sure it's not all FF or 00, and that is opens in other BIOS tools and looks like a good normal BIOS.
If you are unsure, upload for me to check before you write anything to the chip, that way you don't loose any system details that may or may not already be in your current backups.
Plus in doing this, you find out what software version works best for your setup and which chip ID works best etc, that way you don't write right away and it fails and you don't know why then left not being able to program back in anything else either until you get more help later.

If you need FD unlocked BIOS, and BIOS lock removed etc, send me your backup once you create and I will make those changes, then you can program it back in, that way next time if you need to flash anything it will be much easier and can be done from windows via FPT

@Lost_N_BIOS ok I will backup the chip before I write anything.

@Lost_N_BIOS Hey, haven't been able to flash the chip since my brother has been busy. He's the one who has the flasher.

@eknsibby - no rush, just update again when you get around to it, I will be here ready to help.
