@izzy2004 - sorry for any confusion! I said to go to 0x89D008h, which does exist. This is generally 89D008 location, can be said many ways but most to ensure user knows "Hex Location" is meant, 89D008, 0x89D008, 0x89D008h etc.
There you will be at a single byte FF, which follows 4C 4E 56 42 42 53 45 43, edit that FF at 89D008 to FB, that is all

So, see post #12 again, and do only what I mentioned there, how I mentioned to do it.

Hi there,

Sorry about the delay had some work issues I needed to take care of. Hope everything has been well with you.
So i followed your instructions and boot guard did trigger. The laptop wouldn't boot and kept emitting a very low music like tone. I dumped the bricked bios in this url:

I flashed back to my backup for the meantime.
Thanks.

@izzy2004 - No worries, I'm always behind and buried anyway Yes, all is OK with me, thanks for asking! Hope you are doing well too!
So, this means if you want to run mod BIOS you'll have to leave that byte set FF. Did you have any issues using BIOS like that, other than I know you cannot use TPM when it's like that, but did you have any issues?
If it's all OK, then you'll just have to leave that byte set and then do all your mods etc and it should be fine. Do you need help doing anything BIOS mod-wise, or you only needed to figure this out about FPT and stuff we've now resolved?

Hi there, yea I am currently running your MFG mode 24\7. But what I wanted to ask you is if you could teach me how to enable menus for Phoenix. I have only done AMI myself which is a piece of cake. Unfortunately modern phoenix is something new to me. The last one I unlocked to tell the truth I cheated and used bits of another persons module as X1 Gen 2-3 are widely available. T480s however not so much:)

Thanks.

I was following this:

You probably can't understand what is written but the pictures probably tell the whole story. However sadly it doesn't apply to my case. I attached the IFR if maybe that would be of any assistance. Is this just as simple as changing a value that I am not seeing?

Thanks.

@izzy2004 - sorry, I don't know much about Phoenix, so I probably can't help. But, if that guide you linked shows how, then I can advise if you can't understand the guide.
Let me see what's going on there, and then look at your BIOS and see what applies, if anything. * Edit - we're talking the x250 BIOS right?

Ohh, no, that guide is about AMI Aptio BIOS, so totally unrelated. You need to find a guide about Phoenix menu unlocking.
I think there is a good PDF about this floating around somewhere, and I have it somewhere I think, but have never used
I found it - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...198042655938919

* Edit - what main BIOS sections can you see now? Anything hidden in an already visible menu section is easy edit to make visible, but menu section you cannot see is what would be more difficult to make visible.

Oh my goodness, I completely didnt see this. I have since changed laptops a few times now and am on a AMD T14s and tinyurl is no longer a site! Time sure does fly. But I wanted to thank you for taking time to help me regarding. Thank you.

Hello,

Sml6397 from BIOS-Mods here.

Not sure if you are still looking for a Phoenix UEFI modding guide, but I plan on releasing a Phoenix UEFI modding guide in the next couple weeks. It is mostly complete, one modification technique and some touching up withstanding.

I also want to thank Lost_N_BIOS for sharing their incredible wealth of knowledge with the BIOS modding community, as well as people like you izzy who are willing to allow us BIOS modders to experiment with new BIOS modding techniques!

I have only learned to modify Phoenix UEFI in June of this year. And it is thanks to the colossal wealth of knowledge that people like Lost_N_BIOS and BDMaster have shared. I hope to take all of that knowledge and concentrate it into a single, easy to understand guide aimed at beginner UEFI modders like myself.

Hi @Lost_N_BIOS I have a question for you. I have an ASUS Z9PR-D12 motherboard which I would like to make it accept any graphics card, mainly an NVIDIA geforce GTX TITAN. The motherboard only takes Quatro / Tesla voluntarily, by ASUS. There is a very high chance I am 99.9% sure it is a software blocking via the bios. How would you blow the locks?

Thanks!

Do you have a compatible graphic card to be installed in this MB? I can try to find the locks then.

@Sweet Kitten

Well, I'm currently using an NVIDIA Quadro 5000. Hence I'm looking for a custom bios to get it accepted.

@AlexON.ca
If there are locks, they could be found by searching hardware IDs in BIOS. Please, indicate hardware ids of the supported card.
