Hi Friends,

Can someone help with this? I need to unlock the "Advanced TAB" on my Acer Predator.

The Bios version is 1.12 and can be downloaded in this link <<LINK>>

Is there a Way to do this? Acer has a tool that i can upgrade the BIOS firmware inside the Windows called "Insyde H2OFFT V6.08" that are in the link above, so the question is: Even i have a edited bios, ia can use this tool to force the upgrade inside the windows without using DOS?

OBS: My dump files are in this link bellow:

Thanks to much!

@Vernnon! - No, you have to do as I mentioned in the other thread.
You link above is broken, and the unbroken link in the other thread leads to a google page where you have to sign in to download, which I cannot do.
Please reupload all files to new link, and tell me what error you get at FPT step #2

Sorry @Lost_N_BIOS for my broken link, follow a new here... I did all the steps as you told:

OBS1: i did notice any error while dumping the file...

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PA6Rsqx...iew?usp=sharing

Try this thanks!

OBS2: I'll only reply here to not pollute the other thread...

@Vernnon! - Thanks for fixed link
There should never be any error when dumping BIOS (FPT Step #1), you should only possibly/probably see error at trying to write back your BIOS dump (FPT step #2)
So, need to know what error, if any, you get at #2 still

@Vernnon! - Thanks! 167 error is bad, it "May" mean you need to use flash programmer, we will see. If after vars unlock, you still get 167, then we try S3 sleep bug, if your BIOS does not have, then flash programmer will be needed
Here, lets see if unlock vars removes the 167 error. Please put this file into H20UVE_100.00.16.08 folder, then run command below, there will be long list of success/fail, then reboot.
After reboot, do FPT Spoiler step #1 & #2 again using new file name (such as biosregnew.bin), if #2 pass without error, send me new file from step #1

@Vernnon! - Nice to see no more 167~
Here is your unlocked BIOS, flash it back via >> FPTw.exe -bios -f biosregnewm.bin

*** WARNING - To ANYONE with laptop and unlocked BIOS!!!! ***
DO NOT try to enable this graphics card or disable that card, switch cards etc. Otherwise you will end up with no display output (ie black screen) and no way to recover except by blind flash or with flash programmer.
You can change graphics related settings, like changing memory sizes, or core speeds etc, just don't try to disable one card or change which is main etc.
Additionally, be very careful when trying to undervolt CPU, you can leave BIOS unbootable due to CPU voltage too low (Sometimes even 0.05 is too much)

*** WARNING *** - This BIOS is user specific! If you are not user Vernnon! at Win-RAID.com forum, DO NOT USE THIS BIOS!!
If you do, and you are not Vernnon!, then you will loose your serial, UUID, OG NVRAM, and possibly LAN MAC ID as well.
You have been warned!!!

@Vernnon! - You're welcome! Do you not also see "Power" section too now? If not, maybe need to do the edit a little differently
Thanks, I will check PM
