@Lost_N_BIOS: If you are looking for AMITSE I'm afraid you will be wasting your time with my links. All MSI BIOS I've looked at so far has only language-list and nothing else in AMITSE.

Yes, all changes were made in setup. There are still some settings hidden in CPU menu but I found solution just before getting to tired to execute it yesterday.
Correction form earlier; some(not all) of the inserted sub-menus behave as if they are root-menus, in that they evaluate Escape-key as quit-setup-without-saving.
There is also some other glitches, like:
-Entering Legacy Console Redirection Settings hangs and reboots computer.
-All readouts on ECO page says n/a
-Settings in ECO menu looks changeable in BIOS but they stay on setting from AMIBCP no-matter what you choose.
-Missing fan 2 and glitch in printout on F71808 HW Monitor page.
But I guess this is to be expected with menus not tuned for the hardware.

You are right about the original advanced menu though, one would loose some functionality by replacing it entirely. I did not think of that before, but are avoiding replacing those sub-menus in my current edit.

Thanks, but after finally understanding most of the setup IFR.txt, I believe(as long as we can not find info on AMITSE) that my current method is best solution for this board. If we replace root-menus per you suggestion, we will as you say, loose original functionality. I will upload relevant files again when I've unlocked and verified the still locked menu-items.

@h_celine - I am not "looking for" AMITSE, it IS in your BIOS (PE32 module and SetupData module, where AMIBCP changes to settings are saved), unsure what you mean?
I did not use your links for anything related to that, well your BIOS dump I used as a source to pull AMITSE module and setup module from, but I'm not sure what you're talking about so unsure what you mean regarding language only lists etc?

If you mean AMITSE and IFR output only giving you some language list in a 1KB file, that's a given/normal, you never get IFR output from AMITSE.
AMITSE is modified via hex or assembly. It controls what's actually in the BIOS interface, or not there/hidden, Setup module only controls stock settings and their names etc (When NVRAM or AMITSE/Setupdata is not used to control the settings).
All that info I gave you in the spoiler on my previous reply with the @Addresses is from your AMITSE PE32 module, except the list at the very top, which I use from Setup IFR to compare/locate with stuff in AMITSE and edit.

If you want a "In general" idea of what kind of modding I'm talking about here, see this guide I made recently, look in the spoiler at the bottom and you'll see how AMITSE modifications are done (Normally)

@h_celine - *Edit - Here is an example of your BIOS stock AMITSE menu layout/calling function, this is where I would switch using my method. Most other BIOS have additional lists yours does not, that have hidden lists you can add/remove from to enable stuff, yours they never added so can't ""reveal"


The errors you mentioned (About esc, can't navigate properly) are why I asked if you want to try my method to see if it works or not, because if it does you wont have those issues at all.

I didn't compare, what is in your stock ADV that isn't in the hidden one? If you don't use security page, and my method works, then you could swap security for either second ADV or Chipset and then not have the esc/navigation issues

If you're BIOS was normal BIOS, I could enable both advanced, both boot menus, two mains if you wanted and chipset etc. but MSI have either extremely limited the BIOS on purpose, or build all their BIOS on generic limited BIOS and only add in as-needed instead of hiding unneeded stuff like everyone else does.

@Lost_N_BIOS: OK, I misunderstand AMITSE obviously. I believed one was looking for an AMITSE that gave IFR with more than language list in a 1KB file.

Thanks for info, I will look at it.

The things that are in small Advanced menu but not big one are: Fan speed for SYS Fan1, speed readout for SYS Fan1, some settings for com1 and com2, selector between single-/dual-led power-led(this one is gone in my mod as it was the only option in the original ACPI menu that I replaced with big advanced menu). That are those I can remember at-least.

I can try you method to see if it works, but since it will only give one of Advanced/Chipset-menus I see no reason using it as opposed to my solution. The navigation issues are not that big a problem, and one day I might discover how to fix them....

Have unlocked all relevant options in CPU menu, attaching result and relevant files.

@h_celine - with my method, if it works, you would not have the esc/navigation issue, but yes there's only that one menu suitable to swap with, probably best for the new advanced. Is there much you'd use in Chipset, or mainly the other ADV?
I was thinking if my method works, you could put the more used item there in place of security, and then have the least used item replaced using your method, so there'd be less issues getting around the BIOS that way when using the other menu instead of having it all inside main ADV.

Also, I can possibly fix your esc/nav issue if you want, send me your current BIOS as a FPT backup and I will check that out in assembly and see if I can change that from esc=exit to esc=return/back.
For me to figure that out, you need to tell me at least a few places you can use esc and it backs out, vs a few places that you use esc and it doesn't but tries to exit on you instead.

@Lost_N_BIOS: That sounds like a good idea, the best menus to swap in for Security would be the real Advanced menu. Then I could put the Chipset menu in place of a sub-menu I do not need in one of the two advanced menus.

I will make a FPT backup when I get the chance; that PC is on a stability test that have to run at-least until tomorrow, can not use it while test is running.

@h_celine - OK, here is swap of other ADV in place of security, it may or may not work, but was first thing that came to mind as a possibility when I started digging into this

@Lost_N_BIOS: Here is the FPT dump of my current running BIOS. The Escape key works as expected in Advanced and Chipset. In ECO and OC-Profiles it works as "Quit without saving".

Have not tested the BIOS you made with Advanced swapped in for Security yet, got some issues on my other PC after unlocking that I have to fix first so I do not run the risk of bricking both at the same time.

Thanks @h_celine - I will look into this tonight. ECO and OC Profiles, what menu did you put those into?

@Lost_N_BIOS: They are all in the original Advanced menu. ECO in place of Integrated Graphics Configuration, OC Profiles in place of USB Configuration.

I checked, and I can't see where either of those menus are in assembly, so I can't check their exit/return coding sorry!

@Lost_N_BIOS: No worries, it is not a problem. I will get used to how the navigation works in the modded bios. Thanks for trying though.

@h_celine - thanks, sometimes I can't win them all, and MSI is always a bugger! Did you ever test out my switch for security method BIOS? Maybe if that works, you can apply your change too inside advanced, but with having less edits in there.
I could also swap ECO in place of security if you wanted to try that, after you confirm this method works or not, and if it does, then maybe Eco there would navigate normally?

@Lost_N_BIOS: Have not tested it yet. Been staring at that hex editor for too many days continuously, need to take a break from modding for the weekend. I'll be back after binge-watching some Sci-Fi, and letting the subconsciousness work on the problems for a while.

I hear that, my eyes cross often digging around in hex and assembly

@Lost_N_BIOS: Tested the one with Advanced swapped in for Security now; It worked. Thanks.
